<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 7594901, member: 36"]Charlie's right. Weird place for it. For me it was the feet. They don't look like the white metal ones I find on silverplate. Made and affixed differently. The filigree pieces don't look cut from one piece like the usually do. So it was the #4 reason that did it. The lack of rainbowing in the tarnish was a point toward real silver too, although it's not definitive. The tarnish was all gray rather than black, another point towards silver. </p><p><br /></p><p>I'd say for $25 you did OK![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
