This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 8/29/2014
This lot includes a napkin ring that has an extremely tall baker boy wearing a chef's hat and apron, and holding a spoon rest in his left hand on a napkin holder that is atop a pedestal. It is all on a raised oval base that is marked with a button that reads "Wilcox Silver Plate Co.". The solder on the napkin holder is sloppy, it is possible that is was added later. The second napkin ring of the lot has a very large, draped, winged cherub playing a stringed instrument while seated on fretwork atop a domed, footed base that is highly decorated. The napkin holder is attached to the cherub's wings. There is no manufacturing mark or number, and the solder looks good. The piece may be European.
Condition: (Fair - Very Good).
Item Dimensions: Largest : 6 -1/2" L.
