We live on an outcrop of rock, (Causses du Quercy), and our soil covering is quite thin in most places. We don't dig, we just scrape. One of those could be a standard garden implement for us, along with rakes, pickaxes, (yes, used regularly here, Julie has several different sizes), shaped charges etc.dont see these much now

Here we are - although on cleaning they are EPNS not silver. The small spoon on the right is, of course, a mustard spoon. Today I found the cruet set it belongs to (I think) salt and pepper pots and mustard pot complete with bue glass insert. All are black at the moment. and awaiting cleanng.Sugar tongs? Anyone used them?
Have just found 2 silver ones at my late Dad's flat. Will post photo when I have cleaned them up.
Appear to be alive and well down here in sunny Devon.the words please and thank you i think
A mix in London to be fair - nice that some people are still polite!Appear to be alive and well down here in sunny Devon.

Beware you think they need cleaning. The trade call that patina.Here we are - although on cleaning they are EPNS not silver. The small spoon on the right is, of course, a mustard spoon.

VERY good advice!Beware you think they need cleaning. The trade call that patina.
My cousin till they opened a high end jewellery shop was an antique dealer, his advice don’t clean it and never throw it away it might have value. This was good advice as my sister in law had a dish looked something like an old ash tray, turned out to be a poriger if that’s how it’s spelt solid silver but made in Birmingham for a duchess in the 1800s.Believe me - the black colour would not be called patina.
I accept the colour they are now might be.
