![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I don't collect flatware or bug stuff anymore but could not resist this wonderful George Sharp ice cream server. Originally bought for resale but can't bring myself to sell it. The bug is fabulous. IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I always wondered about what customer would buy something like this...putting out ice cream on a hot summer day in 1870, a giant beetle on the server... IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I think of this form as a cracker scoop, but I am sure it would work for ice cream. IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I have seen this Sharp form in the past described as an ice cream server. This was not a primary source attribution, so..... Also, this piece might be a crouquette server. [This message has been edited by Richard Kurtzman (edited 08-23-2020).] IP: Logged |
