<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cxgirl, post: 4217001, member: 63&quot;]I heard back from the College of Arms folks, the charge would be $200GPB to figure this out - I imagine it would take quite a bit of time to do this. If the bowl was part of my family, I would consider it, but since I&#039;ll be selling it on, a bit too much for me to pay. Here is their response:</p><p><br /></p><p><i>Thank you for these images. There actually appear to be two coats of arms here, shown &#039;impaled&#039; together on a single shield, which is a common way for the arms of a married couple to be shown (beneath the husband&#039;s crest).</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>I do not immediately recognise either of the coats of arms or the crest shown on this item, but if you would like me to I could conduct a search of the official College records in an effort to discover whether these designs have ever been officially granted or confirmed, and if so, when and to whom. My fee to conduct this search – which would involve manually extracting and examining any manuscript entries which the indexes to the records suggest may be of relevance to your enquiry – and to compile a written report summarising my findings, would be £200 GBP. Please note that this fee covers my time spent searching and writing my report; it does not guarantee that a positive identification will be made, though all relevant series of the College records will be thoroughly examined.</i></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>sorry SIS, I missed this line when I first read your post, you are correct<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>the fellow from the College of Arms said the same thing<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
