Hi MGArgent,

Nice piece! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks. I had high hopes for this one as it had been incorrectly described as "Newcastle, an 18th century sterling silver ladle" (probably due to the 3 castles), but another bidder or two must have caught on.

Hoping it arrives in reasonable condition this week.
