ANTIQUE DOUBLE HANDLED EUROPEAN PEWTER SERVING BOWL - DATED 1831 - $175 - (Henderson, NC)

UP FOR SALE HERE IS A RARE ANTIQUE DOUBLE HANDLED PEWTER BOWL. I PURCHASED THIS IN A HIGH END ANTIQUE STORE MANY YEARS AGO. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS CAME FROM A HIGH SOCIETY FAMILY AND THE THREE MAKER'S MARKS ARE EUROPEAN. THE ENGRAVED INITIALS THAT YOU SEE IN THE PICTURE, I BELIEVE ARE F.C.P. - COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING ON THAT, COULD BE ANYTHING SUCH AS CREST, ARTIST, FAMILY, OWNERSHIP, MAKERS MARK, MONOGRAM, AND SO ON. HOWEVER I DO BELIEVE IT TO BE A MONOGRAM OF THAT INDIVIDUAL OR ASSOCIATION. THIS BOWL IS VERY HEAVY AT A LITTLE UNDER THREE POUNDS, VERY WELL MADE AND USED. NORMAL WEAR FOR AGE, SOME SCRATCHES AND NICKS AND DANGS WHICH WOULD BE THE NORM FOR SOMETHING THAT IS 184 YEARS OLD AS THIS IS DATED 1831. OVERALL THIS IS IN GREAT SHAPE. I SPENT MANY HOURS ON RESEARCH AND PAID A NICE SUM OF MONEY FOR THIS AND HELD IT ALL THESE YEARS AND DECIDED TO LET SOME PERSONAL THINGS GO FOR SALE HERE. THE MEASUREMENTS ARE 10" DIAMETER X 2 3/4" HIGH OR DEEP. THE HANDLES MEASURE 2 1/2" X 2 /1/4". ****** NO LOWER OFFERS WILL BE ACCEPTED ON THIS ITEM AS THIS IS A FIRM BID.
