Flatware: Towle Colonial Plume, Oneida Toujours; antique utensils - $2 (Nokomis)
QR Code Link to This Post
No silver in any, so technically not 'silverware'. All of these are normal used condition, although the larger serving pieces have less wear due to less use. No bends, no abnormal damage. All will have numerous light scratches in the bowls/fronts, some random heavier ones (not deep), and more dense ones on the back due to stacking and use (including dull scuffed areas across the 'hump' usually). Very hard to get pics of that, but you can come and pick out the ones you want. I'd prefer to sell them in at least even numbers (except the one-offs can go by themselves), or even better, the whole batch of either brand. Priced by research on e**y (huge swings of sold prices on many though, some I doubt were real sales, but trying to be at/lower than average, and there's no $hipping cost of course), and mostly well under that replace site. PLEASE BE SPECIFIC on what you want on your FIRST email, ok? Saves time and more emails.

Pics 4,5,6) Antique serving utensils:
First: Set of 6 old cooking/butcher/forging utensils. Stuff the grandparents used to use. As they came to us, no oiling or painting or other stuff done to them that I know of. Apparently collectible now, for decoration for kitchens and restaurant walls. Left to right in the pic:
1) Iron ladle, 17" long, bowl is 4 5/8" wide. Eye hook hanger, nice condition for its age.
2) Perforated iron skimmer/strainer, 17 1/4" long, 'bowl' is 4 3/4" wide. Eye hook hanger. Heavier duty than 1st one, also good condition.
3) Copper/brass strainer/skimmer with iron handle, 17" long, 'bowl' is 5" wide. 'Rat tail'/hooked hanger. Thin copper or brass, lip on back side holding the iron 'wire' around the rim has a broken out part about 2" long that exposes the wire. Some usual dings in the basket.
4) Iron strainer/skimmer, 20" long, bowl is 5.5" wide, thin metal. Eye hook hanger. Fair amount of the black finish is off.
5) Another iron skimmer, flatter type, 13" long, skimmer area is 4 3/8" wide. Rat tail hanger. Little blobs of metal in the 'bowl', so likely was used for blacksmith/forging work.
6) Butcher's or fireplace fork, 16.5" long, eye hook hanger. Decent black finish, naturally some worn off here and there, but best overall piece of the bunch.
Based on sold prices on that auction site, with many getting over $20 a piece for some of these, I'm asking just...$60 for all
2nd) Georg Jensen of Denmark, Plata salad spoon. Stainless, 8.5" long. Scratched up from use, but they all are, from the few I could find. Seems they're from the 1930's or so. A specialty site had these for $59.99-$94, but actual sales elsewhere for the 1-2 I could find were in the mid-$30+ range. REDUCED, now...$15
3rd) 4.25" Silver plated sugar tongs by Rogers & Hamilton, circa 1896. Raphael pattern. No dings, bends or scratches. Polished up ok, but there is some burnishing and edge wear of the silver plate. Manufacturer stamp didn't strike well, so it reads 'PCGERS' instead of ROGERS, and the 1 in 1896 is just a couple dots. Found these online from $25 to $50 and higher. REDUCED, now...$10
PLEASE READ THIS, so you have the needed info to make this easier for everyone:
My ph# is a landline, so can't send or receive texts.
I'm fairly easy going, but if you can't check your email or voicemail within 24 hours after you send them, and reply by then, then either A) TELL me that in your FIRST message, or B) don't bother. Tired of waiting for slow people when nearly everyone but me has a smart phone. I now email/call back only 1-2 times, then I give up.
I'm not up till early-ish afternoon, so phone messages and emails will be returned after I'm up, so if you call or email before then, PLEASE START CHECKING YOUR EMAIL (and your junk folders) OR VOICEMAIL IN THE AFTERNOON and reply back that day/evening if possible, ok?
If you have a thick accent, be it American regional or foreign, or you can't write understandable emails, get someone who can to do it for you. You know who you are, and I won't deal with people I can't understand any more.
All calls are screened, so if I don't pick up and you don't leave a message, you won't get called back.
Check with your significant other BEFORE you contact me, as I lose many sales because your other half won't let you buy it. Also, measure where you need something to go so you know if it will fit in your home or vehicle, before you contact me.
If you call for directions and then can't come or change your mind, please be considerate and call again and say so, ok? Tired of so many people 'ghosting'.
