Title: Vintage W&S Blackinton Fine Silver Plated Ice Bucket
Post by: valhom on January 18, 2016, 01:47:02 PM

Measures approx. 8" tall, excluding handle. Has glass insulation inside it. Says "W&S Blackinton - fine silver plate - since 1865" on bottom. I couldn't seem to find one like this on eBay, Google image search. I only see more intricate/ornate ones with handles. This one basically has a solid/smooth design. Anyone know how much something like my piece is worth? Thank you. ;)

Hasn't sold yet but found one identical to yours on ebay.  Says it's 1960's.  Here's the link.

Cute little ice bucket that you have there. 

This style was popular in very late 50's and 60's (Sinatra/Martin era).

This style with the attached lid averages $18 - $20 due to it's simplistic style.  (The more ornate buckets, and depending on silver composition/maker, bring more $$)
