[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 256937, member: 85"][ATTACH=full]79924[/ATTACH] MOP (Mother of Pearl) handle, sterling bolster(?might be wrong word - where the arrow is), electroplated nickle silver shank and bowl. Unusual to see the bowl stamped with a pattern. Time period late 1800s early 1900s. Does this look at all like the spoon has been repaired or reattached to the handle? If not, and it looks original, I would have this priced $20-30 in my CA store. Not a big seller, would sit for a while before selling. They used to command higher prices, but like everything else have dropped in price. Mineral oil might help the handle. Wait for other opinions, before trying.[/QUOTE]
