duxa? sterling pin

I have a beautiful vintage spider pin, that's marked 'duxa' (in script, all lower case), 'STERLING'. I can't find any info on them. Does anyone know who they are?

Gracious Silverplate?

I have a few pieces of flatware that are marked only 'Gracious Silverplate'. They're good quality pieces, but I can't find anything about them. Does anyone know who they are and/or where I can get more info on them?

Thanks in Advance
