Description

The listing, extremely fancy antique great-grandmother's SPOON (ornate!) has ended.

Did not really want to auction my great-grandmother's very fancy spoon (she died in 1955 at 90+ years of age) and my 93 year old mother said "let it go", so I hope you are very generous on bidding this for my Mom. Our loss is your gain! She had wanted to get something with the last item but it wasn't enough so I want to put the credits won from this one for her in "escarow" so incase she sees something else, the credits are there. This is her last item from her grandmother that we have. I have no children so no point in keeping a family heirloom with no heirs which to pass it on to. Would like it to be in a home which appreciates it.
Best of luck to those bidding, and to the winner -- in advance thank you for being generous in your credits!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: over 3501 credits will be FREE SHIPPING. If it does not go over this amount the shipping is as follows:
first of all, it is a one of a kind item at this point as far as we know and it is irreplacable therefore NO RETURNS of the item nor credits. It is as is condition as indicated in the photographs.
We do NOT do paypal; a former (I am retired) employer had problems with it, as a result I do not subscribe to it.
The shipping will be $3.75 (it is "heavy-ish") and 85 cents for tracking which may be paid in either concealed cash or money order. As soon as I receive the shipping monies I will IMMEDIATELY go to the post office and mail it to you.

I spent the entire morning running around to see if someone, anyone could read the back with a monical and two magnifying glasses -- to no avail. I plugged in my cellphone after it was dead trying to contact relatives to take a look at it (who couldn't see it either) and took a photograph of THE BACK so I could post it here for those who might be interested to enlarge and see but the ability to edit is now off. If anyone wants a photo to read the back, I will be more than happy to furnish it. Contact me here with your email address and I will send it out to you. Now I need to sit down and rest after all this running around today. Thanks Mary229 for your imput!
