Good Afternoon, I recently acquired this wine cup (or at least that is what I think it is) with the words 'dela Relle' (can anyone translate?) engraved on it along with garlands of fruit. It is marked under the lip of the cup with the Minerva head for 950 silver, and on the base has a triangular sta...

Hi all! I bought a couple of lovely Birks sterling forks today....nice and heavy. I was watching TV and absent mindley started rubbing one of the forks across my thigh on my jeans. It warmed up fast and I looked at it and it had the most lovely polish on it...of course the jeans got dirty but I was ...

Thank you very much for that link Oel. It will come in very handy. These are the salts I want to get the inserts for:



They are Birmingham, 1909 by Horace Woodward & Co

Hi all,
Is there any place/website that sells salt cellar liners?

Thank you!

Good Day! I have found these two coin silver spoons but have had no luck tracking down the information of B.E. Shaw, the maker. They are nice lightweight spoons with a monogram on the reverse. Thank you for any help you can provide. Sincerely, Roberta http://photos.imageevent.com/peachfamily/sterlin...

Thank you....I will look for a silversmith with a snarling tool

Hi all: I have this lovely sterling candy or bonbon dish and was wondering who the maker was. I think I have seen the hallmark before but have had no luck on the various websites tracking it down. It is a swan with what looks like two A's overhead. Thank you Roberta http://photos.imageevent.com/peac...

Forgot to mention that I purchased it in some second hand dumpy store in British Columbia in the fall. Not qhat I expected to see silver, but it sure was a nice surprise. It stands 4 1/2" (11 cm) and weighs about 95 grams. I think it is a vase as there was no lid; perhaps a sugar bowl? But no g...

Hello all: I have been polishing my silver for the upcoming festive season and came across this lovely item. As you can see it has many dents and I am wondering the best way to remove them. Can I do it myself or should I take it to a pro? I think it is a vase, it was made in Birmingham circa 1908 by...

Thank you wev and silverly for your answers. I appreciate it as I had no info at all.

Thank you Bahner and dognose! I appreciate the info. The unicorn mark was so distinctive, I figured someone here would know.

Was this bought off an online auction site or through and online ad? Do the sellers have more of the same? You may have some recourse through the selling venue or if you paid by paypal or credit card. If you paid by cash, there will be almost no way to get your money back. You would have to prove fr...

Hi all: I have had this for about a year but have not had any luck with history or age. Cannot find Geo. A. Harmon listed anywhere. Anyone familiar with the maker? I assume it is an early American piece. Thank you Roberta in Alberta http://photos.imageevent.com/peachfamily/sterlingsilverforsale/webs...

Hi all: I found an interesting German coaster on Wednesday and have not had any luck tracing info on the maker though it is thoroughly marked. Anyone familiar with "Stark"? Thanks! Roberta in Alberta http://photos.imageevent.com/peachfamily/sterlingsilverforsale/websize/IMG_2962.JPG http:/...

Thank you for your welcome and comments regarding the buttons. If I am able to find out anything more, I will let you know.

Hi all: I have just joined the group but have been collecting silver jewelry and misc. hollow ware for over 25 years now! I recently learned of this forum and would like to share these buttons with you. I have been informed that they are Zeeland buttons from the Netherlands. Unfortunately I cannot f...
