This is a lovely Antique Solid Silver Teaspoon. It has a shell decoration to the bowl and a feather edge pattern running around the outline of the front of the handle. It has the old english pattern to the back of the handle. It does have a very fancy entwined engraving in the top of the handle which I think is "JC".

Folding Comb in Mother of Pearl Case

Folding Comb in Mother of Pearl Case in White Metal offered for sale by silver2treasure.

This is an unusual little item being a little White Metal Folding Comb which is attached to a Mother of Pearl Case. The white metal comb does have clear marks on it but I am afraid that I cannot identify and therefore I am having to list this item as white metal but it could be silver. It folds neatly into the oblong mother of pearl handle which makes it a very neat little item to carry around in a pocket or handback
Identifying Marks: It does have 3 clear marks, one being what I can best describe as an old english letter (or indeed foreign symbol), a crown and then 2 letters in either old english or again foreign symbols but as stated above I cannot identify them (please refer to the paragraph below regarding additional photographs where these marks will be shown)
