Antique Silver Plate Finds 3rd Week July 2024 Pt 2

Well, I think I did ok this month. What do you think? How would you go about trying to sell an antique church communion set? Tell me in the comments! And do you think that MCM and modern pieces are more your style?

The communion set was a nice find! So unusual to see them survive altogether. The "ewer" it's actually referred to as a flagon. The plate is referred to as a paten. 😁

Ah! Thank you! I know, it was pretty awesome that it came to me complete. And thanks, I've heard the word flagon before, didn't come to mind that day, but never heard of a paten.

What has underpants got to do with what your shiwing us???🙄🤔😏🙄

[@gmgssilverplate]

You have to understand the South Park joke. Step 1- Collect underpants. Step two ???? Step three - Profit! I'm trying to relate that to selling silver plate. Or in my case, hording too much inventory, because I have no idea how to sell it all. Most silver plate is about as desirable as used underpants. So when I find something I know I can profit off of, the underpants (the undesirables that came with the profitable pieces) remain in a giant pile.

Also, I am as irrationally as obsessed with silver plate as they are with the underpants!

Ok got that good luck with your selling the comunion set is lovely 😁
