Re: antique silver bowl
Any item that's made of silver will generally have markings to indicate the silver content. Most silver hall marks indicate when the item was made, who made it and the date.This piece is probably fairly modern, unlikely it predates the 1950's. Most like made in India for the Tourist market, pieces like this generally sell for less than $20.00.
