2 x This is a most unusual figural napkin ring with bud vase or toothpick holder.
Marked Rockford Silver Plate Co. 170.
Super rare, super impressive up close too.
It is NOT shown in the book by Gottschalk and Whitson, "Figural Napkin Rings: Collectors Identification and Value Guide" , so is quite rare as it was not in their collection.
There are other bud vase rings with the same pattern on the napkin holder so I know it is original.  
See for example the ring in G&W on page 128 in Plate 306, which is Rockford 177.

I have not seen this figural napkin ring before so it is super rare. No previous sales on the Internet I can find either. IKH
