4 x Little Red Riding Hood, Reed & Barton 1492 KHH
Another figural napkin ring. This one is made by Pelton Bros. with no number,
which is how it was made according to G&W
This figural napkin ring also has Little Red Riding Hood but is a bit different.
Marked Pelton Bros, St. Louis, as in G&W but base is different. Missing handle on basket.
It looks authentic to me as the pattern on the edge of the ring matches the pattern around the edge of the base.

in front og her in a ribbed ring that matched the ribbed base. Marked Rockford 55.
