A month or so ago, I posted about the Pierced Banana Server. Here is its brethren, the Solid Banana Server. It too, will run you over $1000.

Butter Pick Knife
Another odd piece, the Butter Pick Knife, seems to be a combination between a butter pick with the tines on the side of the blade and a flat blade butter spreader. They tend to be longer than Butter Spreaders. However, their unique design makes them hard to miss.

Cupid by Albert Coles and Co.
Albert Coles and Co. introduced their Cupid pattern in 1870 (not be confused with the Cupid patterns of Shiebler and Dominick and Haff). The pattern is very distinct image of cupid carrying a horn. The terminal is longer than most patterns and slopes gently into the stem. There is an empty medallion area suitable for engraving. The pattern is quite lovely, especially when one considers it is 143 years old.
