I'm trying to find out what this peice may be? maybe a value? It's my first peice of tiffany & co. Nearest I can figure from the makers mark is it was possibly mid 1800s?
the cabinet is in pretty bad shape - however the machine seems to be in workable condition if the belt was replaced. I'm interested in removing the machine and refurbishing the cabinet into a functional piece of furniture. However, if there is value in the machine as is, I wouldn't want to harm that.
Anyone have any idea whether this should be left as is or if it's in such bad condition that it's not refurbishable and I can go ahead with remodel plans?
I have no real history of this object. It was given to me. I cleaned it enought wiht a silver cleaning rag but did not do a though cleaning as I am not sure how and did not want to ruin it if it was worth something.
I have been trying to find out information on this item but can find anything that it even closly resemlbes.
For some reason I think they are ice forks for a server of somekind.
The marking say PANCOAST and the only thing I can find on that is a Samuel Pancoast from Philly. The mark is not the same as his as this is stamped. So maybe it was his earlier work, later work or not his at all.
Could any one tell me what this is, how much it maybe worth
