Here are some photographs of my figural napkin rings
with a people (female) theme (includes some Kate Greenaway figurals).
This is a private collection display of figural
napkin
rings and toothpick holders, and some other figurals (such as card
trays, and knife rests).
Most of these items were made in the USA from about 1860 to 1900. Some
are available FOR
SALE/or SWAP.
As a collector I am not really interested in selling any figural napkin
rings or toothpick holders that I only have one of (You can still ask
though).
I am prepared to sell or swap any items I have more than one of. Swaps
will be on the basis of comparable value.
ALL PRICES ON APPLICATION. You can contact me via the link below.
As a collector I am always interested in buying anything I do not
already have.

(SILVERPLATE FIGURAL NAPKIN RINGS)

Little Red Riding Hood, Reed & Barton 1492
A Kate Greenaway child sits on a chair of a carpet
designed base. Marked Middleton Plate 98. In mint condition. Does not
look to have been replated, just stored away and never used. What a
find.
This is a very rare figural napkin ring which has a
lady watering a flower withn a watering can.
The lady has a lovely gold-washed dress and there use to be gold wash
around the edges.
The napkin ring is a bit bent, but I will straighten it one day on my
anvil.
It is marked Meriden Silverplate Co. 0229.

2 x This is a very rare and highly sort after Kate
Greenaway figural napkin ring.

most that appear from time to time the rifle is broken.
These two are in very good condition. Marked Simpson Hall Miller &
Co. 205.

The ring is unmarked (except for a 02?) but is
located in G&W to have been made by Barbour Silver Co. # 2903 (see
G&W page 284).
I have another one of these in the 'Male" figural napkin rings (paired
with the matching male ring), so this one is available
FOR
SALE/or
SWAP.

A little girl with a bonnet over her head sits next to
this figural napkin ring. It is not marked but is guaranteed to be
authentic. It is in G&W's book as such. In excellent condition. The
ring is a bit smaller than other rings, so was probably made for a
child.

This figural napkin ring has a lady (possibly Egyptian,
or other northern African) holding bowl on her head, on top of which
sits the napkin holder. It is marked as having been made by Pelton

a name and the date 1910 inscribed on the inside of the napkin holder
(That would have been difficult to do.).
