Title: Old spoons
Post by: Hyacinth on February 08, 2007, 16:44:58
Has anyone got bookmarked a site I can use to find out about spoons, by any chance?

Have come across a box of them, from my MIL's house, in my lumber room today.....guess I'll be snowed in tomorrow too, so I'd like to have a browse...

Thanks.

I like a bit of silver meself, Lish (assuming we are talking silver here). Had a smile at Aces reply, but could come up with nothing better than hang on to the Rat Tail spoons and get yourself a reference book.  ;D

Actually, from  browsing Clang's site, found my way to eBay....there's a book there on offer I'm looking at. Bidding finishes in a coupla days (and yep, think MIL got some really old valuable ones :-\)
