About this listing
This rare item would be a fabulous addition to any collection - be it Royalty, silver or tea accoutrements. Many pieces were made by Asprey during 1968 & 1969 to commemorate the investiture of Charles, Prince of Wales, however I am unable to find this particular one. It is quite large - bowl is 8cm in diameter and the POW feathers and handle add to make a touch over 19cm long. It could possibly be a sugar sifter for sprinkling icing sugar over your strawberries. The bowl is clearly marked Asprey & Co Ltd, London, 1969. I think the handle is bone, but could be a man-made material. It has some marks on it which could be from use, or natural striations, if it is bone, so I didn't want to try and remove them. NB: I am currently listing items on behalf, from my father's extensive antique collection - https://www.trademe.co.nz/MyTradeMe/Sell/Current.aspx Current items will include Satsuma, Cloisonne, Kutani - later there will be British and Continental items. **I do NOT offer to watchers, if you want it you will need to bid ** Contact within 3 days, payment within 5 unless by prior arrangement please ** Happy to send non breakable items overseas (please ask if you are unsure), otherwise NZ resident bidders only please. Having a clear out - check out my other listings, women's footwear and clothing, books, jewelry, antiques and collectibles. Happy to combine postage, but may require some additional postage if it greatly increases the size of the bag or box. **To avoid delays please send address through Trademe
