Found this at the Oberlin GW. It's a 7 1/2 " silver plate bud vase with delicate handles on each side sitting on a little base of marble. The interior is showing brass so I know it's plate, but it did polish nice. There's a mysterious hole on one side. Maybe it was attached to something as one of a pair. There is a bit of label left on the bottom. They put the price sticker over it and no amount of care could remove it without pieces of the label sticking to it. It looks like a large "K" in the middle of a blue background and there are some faint numbers imprint in the paper edge,but they are super small and hard to read. So no ID is possible unless I come across a picture of a complete label. -Mike-
I'm thinking it was a trophy, the engraved plaque snapped off, hence the hole.
