This blog is an exploration of silver and silver plate. It is just a small record of my experiences, hunting, researching and playing with silver and silver plate. One of the most frustrating parts of silver collecting it the lack of research data compiled in one place. I hope to correct this. I hope that parts of it can be useful to you. If you do find it useful please feel free to leave a comment. If you use any information here please leave a link to the post for others.

I just bought a "cake dish". It is labeled "Rogers, Smith & Co. Hartford Ct. #1854.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea if this is very valuable. According to your history, it may have been made around 1857. Please comment.

That sort of thing is so hard to tell without a picture. For most silver plate style is the best way to guess at age. You can send me a picture here: redavis001 (at) gmail.com
