This is a victorian figural napkin ring in original condition dating to 1890-1900. It is silver plated pewter and has no maker's marks. I got it in England but I believe it to be of US origin. The design is a aesthetic movement or arts and crafts design floral engraved napkin ring perched on a branch with leaves. It is pictured in Figural Napkin Rings pg 73 by Gattschalk and Whitson. On the end of the branch against the ring is a running squirrel. It is a wonderful piece. The napkin ring as a whole measures 3.25 inches long by 2 inches high by 1.25 inches wide. A lovely example of whimsical victoriana and very collectible.
Shipping in the US by USPS Registered Priority Insured with signature delivery will be $15.90.
