    1833 John Hallett Estate/ Colonial- style spoon/ Hallettsville, Texas.

    Top one looks older. German one may be as new as the 1920s. Any idea what the top one is made of? Mine is iron, which is a testament to its true age. Hey Terry, remember me at the Yoakum show? I was the young fellow that came and looked at your display. Very impressive. A shame none was for...

    Creek walking. Tips, tricks and LAWS

It took...

    Pontil Decanter

    Probably not as old as you think. Stuff like this was being pontiled into the early 1900s. I’d say that’s when this piece is from. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
