Circa 1912 Green Open Salt with Gold Plating for "Faye"
« on: May 28, 2009, 04:20:00 AM »
This was apparently given to Faye as a gift in 1912, or so reads the etched inscription, which says "Faye 1912."  Does anyone know who produced it or any other useful information?
Thanks,
Charles.

Strikes me as being from the US with those fancy feet. How big is it? I would have said it is probably a posy rather than a salt - the shape is OK and a much more likely gift for a lady
