<p>[QUOTE=&quot;vitry-le-francois, post: 9539666, member: 100&quot;]Fun time at the auction where I purchased this box lot!</p><p><br /></p><p>While seeing the lot in person is, admittedly, much better than a photo on a screen, most of you picked the correct items.</p><p><br /></p><p>1) I noticed the candle holders right off. Almost no one at the auction did! They were all looking at the bottom for a mark. The silver marks are on the side.</p><p><br /></p><p>2) The &quot;thimble&quot; is sterling silver. I didn&#039;t notice the mark until much later (I &quot;preview&quot; the same items multiple times). It&#039;s actually a jigger or a shot glass size. Everyone knew what this was.</p><p><br /></p><p>3) The asparagus server fooled EVERYONE. Including myself. It wasn&#039;t until after I got home that I found the 800 mark on the curved part of the body. Happiness reigned!</p><p><br /></p><p>I paid $110 for the lot. That includes auction commission. The candle holders weigh a nice 15 ounces.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]453339[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]453340[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
