<p>[QUOTE="Rxwoman, post: 418705, member: 5972"]I tried taking better pics of details. Someone did a bad job replacing the glass, and replacing the face frame, as it is cockeyed and rubs the wood. I looked closer at the face and it does look like silver that someone shined up recently. If not silver, what kind of metal might the face be made of. There's a note from the 80's that my mother in law left in it that states where it was purchased and who they thought made it (they read it wrong) and that the chain is made of silver. Yes, I need someone to examine it in person. Thank you to everyone for your input!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]146112[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]146113[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]146114[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]146115[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]146116[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]146117[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]146118[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]146119[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
