Scott Martin Forum Master Posts: 11520 Registered: Apr 93	posted 06-28-2009 01:57 PM Great faces in silver #4 The first part of this thread is Great faces in silver #1 From time to time great faces show up in silver and silverplate. We thought it would be fun to start a thread where we post photos of great silver faces. IP: Logged

blakstone Posts: 493 Registered: Jul 2004	posted 07-22-2009 10:53 PM Recent online auction purchase: a pair of French Louis-Philippe era second standard (.800) double-struck teaspoons by Joseph Henry, a Parisian jeweler working briefly at 8 rue de Limoges, 1841-1846. Two faces here for the price of one: a satyr masque on the handle and a putto on the heel! IP: Logged

And a handsome early 1890s Arminius by Howard Sterling Co., from their #322 Antique Heads coffee spoon pattern, the only one of the twelve not on a medallion. ~Cheryl IP: Logged

ahwt Posts: 2334 Registered: Mar 2003	posted 04-03-2011 09:48 PM These objects have been on my wife's dressing table for as long as I can remember. The image is the same on all three, although they were made in different years (1900 and 1903). The image has been repeated many times and it always beautiful. IP: Logged
ahwt Posts: 2334 Registered: Mar 2003	posted 04-05-2011 11:54 PM Buster Brown and his dog Tige were well known characters in the early 1900s and became part of the Brown Shoe Company's advertising at the St. Louis World's Fair in 1904. They do have interesting faces. IP: Logged

ahwt Posts: 2334 Registered: Mar 2003	posted 04-11-2011 09:59 PM My wife collects sewing objects and this one has something to do with ribbons –she also collects ribbons- and is used I think to thread the ribbon. This is a very long dog with a body as interesting as the face. IP: Logged

Marc Posts: 414 Registered: Jun 2002	posted 05-14-2011 10:34 PM ================================================ Please respond to Mark's question in Figual pitchers identification ================================================ Hi all, I picked up these two cream pitchers, from a dealer, at the Don Scott monthly show in Atlanta, who knew I collected figural silver. They are cast, 2.25" tall, sterling silver, and retailed by the "New Orleans Silversmiths" shop. One of these is Punch", for sure, and I believe the other is "Lafayette" , but as the bust has a mustache, I ask for help, in identification. Also, would anyone know if these cream pitchers were part of a larger set? Thanks..
