A fine and very long length salt spoon by Wm Hutton & Sons of Sheffield in Old English with spiral twist handle. No monograms.

A very fine looking large basting spoon (these also make great serving spoons!)

Here are 2 truly huge lipped pudding basins by T.G. Green, the largest being 9 pint capacity and the slightly smaller one 6 pint. The 9 pint size was the largest that TGG ever made and the 6 pint the 2nd largest. See the 1928 advertisement photo. We have been custodians of these for over 20 years and they have made a good few Christmas cakes etc over the years, but time for them to go to a new home. Will be exceptionally well packed of course.

An interesting pair of tongs, unusually with mother of pearl nip ends.

An interesting piece - the bowl is not far off an average tablespoon in length but shallower and is nicely engraved with a flower. The bowl is silver soldered to the long twisted handle. There are absolutely no markings - it may be a student silversmiths piece or similar.

A nice and unusual frame to take a box of dates and side arm slots to hold a fork. Comes with the pickle fork shown which works well with it. Made by Thomas White of Birmingham, early c.20th

A nice little dish, the handle having supports for 2 picks (original) with ball finials.

A silver plated sugar bowl in the form of a coal scuttle complete with scoop. Unusually this has as tilting stand, not seen one like this before.

Here are 2 nice pieces in Venetian, largest one is by Pinder Bros of Sheffield. Early c.20th.

A fine and rare piece in Venetian, this is a short length cake knife with bright cut work to blade. Made by JSD.

This is a nice and unusual piece by Plato, the 2 holders to front are of slightly differing shape and height for some reason, we assume it was for holding pencils but could be wrong.

A lovely pink pressed glass open salt pot in its original silver plated frame and with a dainty tiny salt spoon with ball finial and gilt washed bowl interior.

A nice looking claret jug with deep cut work to the glass which is of an unusual tapering oval shape. EPNS upper chased with flowers to the collar.

A good looking pedestaled and swing handled fretworked body basket. Would originally have had a glass liner but makes a nice boon-bon bowl as it is.

A Victorian large butter spade by Dixon

A good looking 3 piece set, quite heavy, the pot having a carved wooden handle. Probably Indian origin but quite well made.

A vintage 3 piece coffee set with lidded sugar bowl. Pot capacity is c. 1.5 pints.

A vintage 3 piece by Wm Adams Inc of Birmingham, the pot capacity c. 1.5 pints.
