Lot 292: A Collection of Assorted Silver-Toned and Brass Metalware

A collection of approximately fifteen metalware and related items, primarily composed of silver-toned metal, likely silverplate or pewter, alongside some brass or bronze-toned pieces. Key objects include a footed compote, an ornate pierced serving tray, a hammered tankard, a small rectangular lidded box on feet, a circular bottle coaster with a wooden insert, and a three-compartment condiment stand. Other notable items are a large decorative shovel with a carved-style handle, various small fittings, a wide leather strap, and a diminutive blue and white porcelain thimble-like object. The styles present a mix of ornate, pierced, and hammered finishes, suggesting a possible age range from the late 19th to mid-20th century.
