[QUOTE="bosko69, post: 6760260, member: 16283"]Thanks Lark-I certainly don't blow my money on silver plate very often,but this one got me. I guess my rule of thumb would be w/ plate-the weirder more eccentric & flamboyant the piece,the better.Also a combo cigar cutter/corkscrew will always most likely be more valuable than a basic brides basket,course if said basket has an extraordinary pristine glass insert-who knows. ***Obviously if the plated piece is hallmarked 'Christofle' or 'Tiffany' all bets are off- Bakersmaga & Mr.Nate will know tons more than me re: other types of marquee plate.[/QUOTE]
