London Spring 12, Extra Refined Warranted, Patent Ground, Reg.U.S. Pat. Off. , should be from the early 1900's. Still very sharp and very straight, with some imperfections on the blade.
This is a little flow blue little tea cup or demitasse cup in the shape of an ear of corn and the saucer is in the shape if an ear or corn. Kernels of corn, the handle and the inside rim on the cup are gold gilded. The leaves on the saucer are also accented gold. There is a blue marking stamp on base of cup but it is smudged. Looks a bit like a volleyball net shape for lack of a better description. There are brownish numbers or letters 157 or 1ST ? brushed on over the blue mark. The saucer is incised with the number 6173. I believe there is another incised stamp that looks a bit like an elephant but not sure about that either.
I have a rectangular shape table. The top of the table is a solid piece of marble. Black and white/gray in color. The base is wrought iorn with leaf detail. It was purchased in the 50's to 60's from a hotel in Chicago that was closing. I do not have any further information on the table. I am wondering if it is an antique or not, and how much value it would have if any.
I have no idea what this is...help? It is made of bronze or brass and is about 12" long. It has two sharp prongs or hooks. It has a pendent on the top with a gold leafed eagle and 13 stars. What is it, its age, its worth...
