These are a few of the things I bought at the Junk Bonanza, and also a few estate sales this past weekend.
I found another fruit crate - love those.
A cute little drawer, the lock and key still work! A few French books.
There were tons of drawers at the Junk Bonanza. I love how they look grouped together.
My favorite thing to look for is unusual Victorian silverplate serving pieces, and I was surprised to find some at the Junk Bonanza.
Including a set of small cream spoons and a set of ice cream spoons.
Both have very ornate floral patterns. The ice cream spoons are monogrammed.
I also found some larger serving pieces.
Also with very ornate patterns.
An asparagus serving fork, and a cake serving fork.
A large ladle and a pair of unusual salad serving pieces. The bowls have an embossed pattern.
The large ladle has a monogram on the front side, and the back is engraved: 1880 Oct. 25 1905.
I wonder what those dates mean???
birth and death dates?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the dates represent a 25th anniversary? Perhaps it was a gift.
ReplyDeleteLove the beautiful silverware! Did you find them in such great condition? Lucky you!
ReplyDeleteYou hit the silver jackpot! I think the dates on the ladle represent a wedding anniversary.
