Title: Some Antiques
Post by: Markus on August 22, 2010, 01:11:52 PM

Hi Everyone.
I have found a few things while shopping recently that I'm quite curious about. (Attached photos)
I'm trying to find out some more information about these things, but regretably I can not find any furthur information. I was hoping if anyone else knew about these items they could inform me :)
Thanks for any help.

Some questions I have:
The Chicken/Hen on Nest: It is missing the Salt and Pepper Shakers that belong inside, And has some markings on the bottom (Msg me if these markings can help with your answers):
Markings say Japan (on rim) and GE-399 stamped in green, and shiny sticker that says giftcraft.

I'm looking to find an extra set if at all possible, and what time it is from approx.

The Pear Bowl: Says "Pearfect Pear" on it, cant seem to find any information on the "artists" or the bowl itself. Any info on it would be appreciated as well.

I have had these figurines (6 in total) that I bought about 20 yrs ago, from a yard sale, the lady told me she bought them on her honeymoon in 1941. There are no markings on them, however there is 3 shells on the base of each figurine that i'm assuming could be a "signature." I have been told that there should also be 2 others to go with this set.
Any information would be great. :) Thanks

Hi Markus, nice finds.

May I suggest that you post a few (1 - 3) items per posting. It makes it easier for "lookers" to browse and "antiqeurs" to respond!
