The differences between silver and silver plate

A Really Good Well Thought Out Video All The Best To You.

Thanks for you detailed video. Two questions if I may. First what does it mean if my tray says sterling #124-80. Secondly does the price for electo plated pieces also vary depending on the cost of silver at the time of purchase or selling?

Really good video, but I'd like to know what you meant by OSP & Silver, aging more "maturely' than EPNS.

I have a small, decorative box. Somewhat teardrop/eye shaped looking down onto it. It was completely gray when I bought it. I found that it responded wonderfully to a aluminum-baking soda-hot water treatment....except for the lid. It seems no matter what I do it stays dull gray. The underside of the lid and the inside of the container show similar signs of old luster and shine, but the top of the lid seems doomed to be darker than the container. Do you have any idea why this is and what I can do about it? the bottom of it says "41 Derby Silver Co. 32".

Possibly pewter, in the past pewter was made of many different parts, silver being one of them. My understanding is that silversmiths from the past had their own, let’s call it ‘recipe’, so what you are describing could likely be a silver alloy type of pewter, that has been also silver plated. This practice made for a quality final product. The weight of this higher quality pewter can certainly cause one to believe that the item is sterling, it would tarnish like sterling, look like sterling, have the weight of sterling, and lack the typical telltale signs one looks for when identifying cheaper quality plated silver products. Think of the difference in 10kt gold versus 22kt or 18kt gold. Or better yet , imagine a 5kt gold necklace that was also plated with a high quality gold plating. A jeweler or expert would know the difference, but such an item would appear very real(which it is) and if deceptively stamped with a 14kt marking, could be sold to the average person easily as a genuine 14kt piece. I use that example only to try to describe the concept, not to imply that the pewter makers of generations past were attempting to be deceptive.

hello. Do You think international silver company did pure silver custom? I had a mirror from this company, but it does not have a pure brand, nor the word "steling" the only thing engraved is the name of the company: international silver company Thank you very much for the information in your video.
