I have sold sets of the French Ivory for about $15/piece, so you might use that as a guide. I am not qualified to give you a valuation, just my thoughts!Pigtown*Designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13775512940294150252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-735719884954321988.post-27993156851600409432011-07-16T08:06:55.874-04:002011-07-16T08:06:55.874-04:00Hi, I have found your blog whilst trying to find a...Hi, I have found your blog whilst trying to find a value of my ivory fish knife and fork set, it is real ivory not French, and the hallmarks are as yours with the exception of GB at the beginning. Have you any idea of the value of this set? It has 6 knives and forks and is the original wooden case that is now a bit bashed, the case is lined with a blue silk to the top with REAL IVORY printed on joannahttp://joanna.hale@yahoo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-735719884954321988.post-10919403008377685612010-06-11T16:09:05.426-04:002010-06-11T16:09:05.426-04:00Lucky girl and a brown wrapping with a surprise is...Lucky girl and a brown wrapping with a surprise is fine with me!!<br /><br />Karena<br />Art by KarenaKarenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05206642885608991170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-735719884954321988.post-71019189302833640332010-06-11T14:17:12.505-04:002010-06-11T14:17:12.505-04:00Friends makes everything else worth while.

Regardless of shopping abilities, though, Andy just looks like a find! He is a charming and those kids adorable.

You briskly rub it in a small spot with fabric until it gets warm. At that point you can smell a decidely chemical smell that you cannot with plastic.<br />I love the stuff and fortunately inherited all that I have including a lovely vanity set with glove stretchers and tiny rouge pots.Kerry Steele- Design du Mondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13066816712379181399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-735719884954321988.post-87490233883163146212010-06-11T04:32:27.543-04:002010-06-11T04:32:27.543-04:00Lovely, in brown paper packages, indeed.Lovely, in brown paper packages, indeed.Barbara Wells Sarudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15277378178650355645noreply@blogger.com
