This creamer and sugar set dates from about 1900. It is made of hammered pewter which could be polished to a high silvery shine if you wanted.
Both pieces are marked on the base ENGLISH PEWTER 01075. This was an early Liberty Tudric marking system.
The condition of the pieces is good, although the sugar has had a slight push downwards and is now slightly out of round. It is a good early set of very collectible English pewter.
Here is an old tin candle mold (mould). There are holes for 6 candles and a hanging loop. As expected from an antique, useful implement, the condition reflects its age. These molds are very decorative on the wall for a vintage rustic look.
This sweet little pewter creamer and sugar on a tray originates from Norway. It features a design called Groenlandica (Greenland) showing sports and activities from the arctic.
This pretty tray features a detailed design of apple blossoms. It is made of aluminum and can be polished to a high shine if desired. The tray measures 14" x 9".
It was made at the Wendell August Forge in Grove City, PA, one of our favorite places to visit and tour.
These pretty metal calling card trays may date from the early 19th century or possibly late 18th century. They are metal and have an impressed number in the base but no other information. Their provenance from Quebec may indicate a French origin.
They are exquisitely detailed and show little cherubs in the spring. The Bacchus head and grapes may indicate a relationship with the wine harvest.

The first set is Item # KA69 priced at $ 75.00. The container measures 4.5" across and it contains 10 fluted edge cookie cutters of different sizes, which nest together in their box. Each cutter has a rolled top edge and is neatly soldered at the joints. This set is now SOLD.

We try to stock fireplace items ready for winter. Here we show our stock of English brass toasting forks with decorative handles.
Our favorite is the grinning cat with his arched back. We also have a sailboat, group of dogs, girl with watering can, horse head with good luck horseshoe, stag and galleon.
These look great hanging near the fireplace and they are useful for toasting marshmallows or toast.
Hoselton aluminum miniature scultures are made in Ontario, Canada and have become popular not only in Canada, but are increasingly collected by our American neighbors.
The art of the sculptor is seen in the reduction of each figure to its elemental simplicity without losing its character. They make ideal gifts and fit well into any contemporary decor.
The scultures are made of cast aluminum, which is polished to a high shine. Each piece carries the Hoselton or Hoselton Canada signature and its design number. We have never needed to refinish or polish these pieces, even after many years.
Item # ME 25, now SOLD, is a signed and numbered (682) Hoselton boat / yacht, which would make a fine desk ornament for the sailor on your Christmas list. It measures 9" high x 8" wide, quite large for a Hoselton sculpture. It has a mirror finish in good condition, with normal age wear on the base.
Item # ME 130, priced at $45, is beautifully designed, cast aluminum loon bird figure on a polished Canadian green soapstone base. The base measures about 11" long, while the loon is 8" long. There is a silver Hoselton label under the base. This is a heavy piece.
Item # ME 128, priced at $20, is a signed and numbered (718) gracefully reclining dog, possibly an Afghan hound or standard poodle, or any dog you want it to be. It measures almost 5.5" long at the base and is just over 3" high at the ears.
