Sterling Flatware - Sell for Silver Value
Comments (24)I have been putting my sterling into the dishwasher, daily for about 40 years....whatever....since I first got a dishwasher about 1970. When we were first married, I chose not to register for stainless....and not to buy any....all $$ would be spent on Sterling. Well, in the first year I realized I had to have some stainless to take on picnics and to pot lucks...so I bought 2 knives, 2 forks, 2 spoons and 2 salad forks at Woolworths for about $2. I turned bacon with sterling...I stirred a pot of cereal with sterling... And it's still there....including 2 spoons and a fork that have "disposer damage", before I made the rule that no silverware ever EVER goes into the sink with the disposer. Go for it....I love using my sterling every day!! Linda C...See Moreidentify sterling silver set?
Comments (7)They are probably from 1937, as a commemorative set. Birks is a canadian company & they use a similar type of date code as British marks. So I would have to see the shape of the cartouche along with the "b" I'm not sure what other information you are looking for. mfrog...See MoreSterling silver jewelry vs. Sterling silver fashion jewelry
Comments (6)Seller is doing a bad/fraud deal. Fashion Jewelry classification can be cheap knock off and pot metal silver toned or colored, nickle/silver and sterling even gold plated sterling can be classified as Fashion Jewelry but it is not sterling if it is not marked STERLING Seller is in violation of EBay rules If it isn't .925 silver, it CANNOT be called STERLING in any way, shape or form. It is "silver tone" or "silver colored" NOT sterling. Sterling silver most always has the word sterling stamped into it somewhere but not always. Some hand wrought vintage pieces are not marked Sterling and Should never be bought online without a certificate of authenticity by the seller. Selling fashion jewelry as STERLING Silver is fraud. She misrepresented the item and you should ask for a full refund, report her to Ebay and if you paid thru Pay Pal refute the payment. Item misrepresented is a serious charge just make sure you have saved the pages and the description and every bit of info about the bracelet she posted and get pics of the item you received to show it is not as described. If she requests it back before she refunds send it signature required and/or tracked so you have proof she received it. People who lie about one thing will usually lie about another. Good Luck Vintage STERLING Silver Brooch collecting is one of my passions. I do many nice deals on Ebay for brooches and other vintage sterling things. Please sent the auction # to my email. I want to make sure I don't buy from a fraud seller. CT...See MoreSpacing Sterling Silver Linden & Yellow Butterflies Magnolia planting
Comments (28)Public parks and most home landscapes look like they do because of a widespread inherent view that a comfortable setting for people is a pastoral one. That is one consisting primarily of trees and grass. This phenomenon has been called the Savannah Mentality and said to be rooted in our biological origins in parts of Africa were the landscape consists mostly of parasol acacias scattered around on plains of short grasses. Consistent with this the name Weeds, Trees & Turf chosen for a landscape maintenance trade publication recognized that these three were dominant elements in what operators were dealing with on job sites. This ancient experience seems likely also have something to do with the recurring tendency to try and make diverse kinds of trees in garden settings have some kind of approximation of a parasol like crown. Including excessive stripping up of the trunks of conical conifers and hollies into "Calgary Palms" and other aberrations....See MoreLars
