Attached are pictures of a pair of bookends currently listed on e-bay (No. 7363663517 ). They bear the Benedict mark and the words "Viking Silver". The surface working and design is not one I would immediately associate with the Benedict Studio.

Coincidentally I also have a pair of [not exactly sure what they are] also with the Benedict mark and the words "Viking Silver"

Does any know what is meant by Viking Silver and anything about the surface design.

Benedict produced several different designs marketed with different cultural themes. Mayan, Egyptian, Etc.... The Nordic or Celtic designs were very popular during the period. I have never seen this line by Benedict and appreciate your effort to share it with us.
