A small nibble to one edge

with a crouching lion holding a ball under its paw on top

however that night had a dream in which he was visited by Christ who explained he should use that sign against his enemies to evoke the protection of God

Pair of Edwardian Silver Pig Pin Cushions jelly opal A small nibble to oneDATE: Edwardian, 1905 A pair of antique sterling silver pin cushions in the form of (as my three year old would put it) piggy porkers. They're really quite charming, one with maker's mark CS*FS Cornelius Saunders & Frank Shepherd and both featuring English hallmarks with date letter indicating they were made in 1905. Weird? Yes. Useful? Depends what you're in to they'd make great paperweights if you don't have a bunch of pins lying around.
