<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 311875, member: 5833"]I'm actually rather fond of forks but don't collect either. Since I do collect cameos, couldn't resist this spoon with the face of Medusa on the bowl and a harpy sitting at the top of the handle. Immediately above the bowl is what appears to be another little grotesque face. The wreath-like ring is movable. Above the spoon is a brooch with the same harpy figure. The longer fork, engraved with a B, natch, is by Rogers. The other with a gryphon rampant on top is, like the spoon, marked 800. Guessing spoon, brooch & shorter fork are souvenirs of Italy.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]103220[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]103221[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
