Re: Antique cup thing
Value and information about itÂ
Re: Antique cup thing
It's most likly a sugar bowl and it's early 20th century silverplate. There currently is not much demand for silverplate, especially if the condition of the plating is unknown. You'll have to polish this one up to determine if the plating is worn or missing before determining a value.
Re: Antique cup thing
This is clearly too large to be a sugar bowl. I'd say it is more like a gravy bowl.
Here's a link to "Old Sheffield Plate"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheffield_plate
And another site says "The two common forms of plated silver are Sheffield plate and silverplate/electroplate.Sheffield Plate is a cheaper substitute for sterling, produced by fusing sheets of silver to the top and bottom of a sheet of copper or base metal. This 'silver sandwich' was then worked into finished pieces. At first it was only put on one side and later was on top and bottom."
Here's another site with very useful information:
