<p>[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 25607, member: 111"]Individual nut dishes were generally just a bit smaller (and wouldn't have had a spoon), though it sometimes depended on whatever the manufacturers or retailers chose to call them. Even though this is at the small end for bon-bons (and could certainly be used for nuts too, as could the spoon), it was more likely intended for general placement on a table, sometimes they were sold in pairs, one used at each end of the table - these probably date from the early 20th century.</p><p><br /></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
