Antique Questions Forum / Silver Dish

« on: March 16, 2015, 09:48:12 am »

Hey guys, I haven't dug very deep into this piece (only like an hour of frustration). The piece is 12 inches across and a couple inches deep. It is marked "Trabajo Mano" and "925 AC". I am not sure what it is for but I am assuming it is just a wall piece. If anyone knows what it is for and maybe an age time frame that would be magical.

Antique Questions Forum / Silver plate? Value? Any info?

« on: March 13, 2014, 11:17:49 pm »

Hey guys, I haven't been on in a while and am excited to get back in to the grove of finding cool crap. I recently got a ton of silver plate for very little $$ and out of all of them this one stuck out to me. It is marked twice with English Silver MFG Corp and Black Starr & Gorham. It is heavier and feels better than the other silver plate I own. Any infor would be great and maybe a value. I have looked around but am falling short with research.

I got this little box in a huge auction estate lot. The Top says "ILPS" "gegent" "ICF" "1674" and on the sides it has "*" stamped on the lid and bottom piece. Can anyone tell me a little more. I found a couple things but maybe with a little help I can figure out if I have something special or just cool

Antique Questions Forum / Unmarked Plates???

« on: April 08, 2013, 11:16:10 am »

I have some unmarked plates that I got from my grandma who she took out of a quality estate a long time ago. They aren't marked on the back but they struck me as cool. They have a silver rim that isn't painted on or anything. The silver was tarnished when I got it. Any ideas on when or where they came from? I don't know if it is even possible to identify without a mark but who knows.
