Since my grandmother passed away we have no idea where this came from. In 1925 she was to young to even play golf. It is very odd. We can not find any records of a Colonial Counrty Club in Arkansas BUT we do know that she did live in Texas during the 50's and that is where the famed Colonial Counrty Club but not sure if this is from that golf course. We are somewhat stuck here and we are looking for answers. So please, if anyone has any ideas please let me know.

I inherited this two years ago when my step-mother passed away. She had received it from her grandmother who said it was from Italy. It has the same pattern all the way around it. The handle is solid with a leaf pattern on it. The only distinguishing marks are underneath. There are three lines of writing, it looks middle-eastern. I may sell it depending on the worth.

3 piece silver tea set

History
Description
The set includes a tea pot, creamer and sugar bowl. They each have a single flower with leaves to the left and right on both sides. The imprint on the bottom is a shield and within the shield say Rogers, Smith & Co. / Meriden,CT/ Quadruple. Under the shield 1800 and under that U.S.A.
The imprint is not on the tea pot.
I am very curious as to when it was made, and what the value might be.
From the research I've done, I know it is silverplated and the 1800 is the pattern # not the year it was made (unfortunately). I know the company was founded in 1857 in Hartford, CT and didn't move to Meriden, CT until 1876. They were bought by International Silver in 1897. I don't know it they continued to use the same imprint after that. If they didn't then the date would be between 1876-1897.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Appears to be a silver plate of St. George(the front) and was made into a box,
welded to another box to make it the way it looks now. A handle is on each side. One person
suggested it may have been a tea box. My husbands father who was greek, always told him there was a piece of Christs cross in the box. however, the box was opened to find two byzantine coins.
