Thank you Ipcress - n you are correct on the identification. (Now the picture comes in clear that has the hallmark for the spoon!!!)
Ed is working on the "challenges" with the site!
Mart, I agree. The pattern on that one is gorgeous. Most pieces that were of regal importance had shell designs on them (Such as this one called "New Queens". There are also Kings patterns, Queens patterns, etc.) They were popular way-back-when and continue to be highly prized!
But I do really like this one!
