Meissen Type 18th Century European Porcelain Jug / Pot

Possibly German Ca. 1760

A baluster form jug with all over molded basket weave pattern, quatrefoil vignettes of couples in a landscape, scattered floral sprigs, lots of gold highlighting and the lid with a flower form knopf. This resembles Meissen type production and many factories that copied Meissen’s style. It is unmarked. It probably dates from the 3rd quarter of the 18th Century.

W. Kimball Coin Silver Soup Spoons Ca. 1840

Six W. Kimball Coin Silver soup spoons made around 1840. The maker is one of the few I have not been able to definitively locate a record for. The family I purchased them from had 19th century roots in Connecticut. The six of these weigh a total of 8.2 Troy oz.
