Of course you can display it....soak it in 20% peroxide or clorox for several days and it will lighten up. And it probably isn't what's displayed on Worth Point as it's not an Aesthetic Movement pattern. The Chinese piece isn't discolored in the same way the English piece is....the glaze is not crackled....so all the soaking in the world won't change the discoloration.....but a good scrubbing will. And the mark is most likely NOT computer generated. That is a real piece of old Chinese porcelain, but I don't believe from 1890.....more like 1910. The Chinese often used the dynasty mark years after that dynasty had ended. 2 nice old pieces....but dirty. Clean them up....the colors won't fade. Linda C

This is the whole spoon. I'm hazarding a guess that it is circa 1970, but really, I know diddly-squat. I checked out many of the Peter Rabbit cutlery and they all seemed to be marked Oneida, etc. This is one of the few that seems to have a pictorial maker's mark instead of a company name. Just wondering if anyone has come across this mark or can put a name to it.

Thank you - dcarch. Herbs are fun!!!! Caliloo, I got my cutter from the Maker's Mark distillery about 9 years ago and had never used it!!! But I was so glad I did buy it!!! I'll definitely do the same cookies for the party next year! Martha

Often called a "Savonarola" chair, a style that comes and goes in fashion and has since Egyptian times. Linda's right ... not "Mission" style, but it looks to be from the early 1900s based on wood (oak) and the flat rounded splats on the back. it would blen well with it. Can you show the rocking part? I'm having a hard time picturing a Savonarola chair that rocks.
