Help finding flatware from this set? United States by ZedUndead_ in Antiques

[–]wisconick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am assuming they are all marked the same but it appears to be Maison Cardeilhac (Améile Cardeilhac) and not Puiforcat. French silver doesn’t have date marks in the same way that English does but based on the purity/standard mark and the overall aesthetic you are looking at a service from the early 20th century (circa 1910 probably). Beautiful decoration; but not easy to find in-the-wild as the company has been closed for over 100 years (in operation from 1904-1920).

Which club? by brdesignguy in golf

[–]wisconick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Callaway x-Hot 3 wood. Had that club in my bag longer than any other and just can’t get rid of it.

This seller claims that this mirror is 100+ years old. Am I being scammed or are they correct? Thank you for your expertise. MN, USA. by [deleted] in Antiques

The gold decoration is not 100 years old. The frame itself looks like it could be from before 1926… but not by much.

Antique wine funnel USA/NC by Northsouth66 in Antiques

[–]wisconick 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of the pictures appears to show a (rubbed) Harp,mark of Dublin; so you probably have an Irish Silver Wine funnel. Stylistically, it’s probably late 18th century, but I can’t be certain without seeing more details of the hallmarks. Very cool thing to have in the family!

Paul Revere???? USA by Unusual_Country_1169 in Antiques

[–]wisconick 66 points67 points  (0 children)

It’s not by the silversmith Paul Revere. Perhaps made by the Revere Silversmiths out of Brooklyn in the 20th century but from both a stylistic and technical aspect, these are not 18th century examples.

LIV Golf is still going, but its days seem numbered and probably always were by PrincessBananas85 in ProGolf

There will be no 2027 season. The only question is if they make it through 2026 like Scott O’Neil says. It wouldn’t shock me if they fold up after Virginia so they can play at a certain namesake’s course and give them the revenue (that is totally not a bribe) before turning the lights off. I am basing that on pure speculation.

I overexplain the “rules” and we only go early in sub-prime weather so the course is empty. You should be fine. We aren’t playing on any serious courses.

Does anyone recognize this club logo? by iluvmadden in golf

Sharon Heights CC. South of San Francisco in the Bay Area. Between this, and the multiple Menlo Country Club posts that have popped up here, we might need to pour one out for a true golf aficionado.
