Title: pewter soup bowl
Post by: DLK on March 28, 2003, 05:02:08 pm

Trying to find out about something I haven't even seen!
It's a pewter soup tureen. Has a lid with a cut out for the spoon which is included. Dome lid, metal handles on the sides. Says RWR on the bottom.  Also says Wilton Columbia USA but that might be Winstin Columbus USA.

Does any one have any ideas how I'd look up the worth and history of such a thing.

Thank you,  Debbie :rolleyes:

I just thought I would add a comment.  Ebay IS a great tool for determining approximate worth.  Keep in mind shipping price advertised in the listing.  Especially in larger/heavier items.  That should be factored into the sale price.
