Title: Antique bull Cork Silver - Age?
Post by: bonfiregirl on November 27, 2015, 01:21:14 PM

Greetings,

I recently found (and absolutely adore) this wine cork. It has no makers mark or silver mark and is very light. I'm thinking it is not silver plate but hollow sterling. I am wondering about its possible age and/or value. I have searched and searched for something similar but to no avail.

Any info would be appreciated!

If its very light,, not likely sterling !! Sterling would be marked as a rule!!

Does the cork come out?  Could be markings inside.  Either way it's a very cool piece.
