<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MrNate, post: 504685, member: 5515&quot;]Hi everyone!</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope you&#039;re all having a nice day, I&#039;m having a wonderful one! I found something great (at least in my opinion) and I thought I would share with you. Today&#039;s find happens to be silver plate, but that doesn&#039;t stop it from being beautiful (or valuable). I stumbled upon a flatware box set, and upon closer inspection I could see a good number of the items were made by Christofle of Paris. I didn&#039;t need to look much more and grabbed them up. Upon closer inspection and a bit of research, there are two different patterns combined into basically a 12 person serving set. All of the items show a CC 84 mark, which according to 925-1000.com mean these were made between 1844-1862. They weren&#039;t exactly cheap, as I paid $150 for the set, but I don&#039;t mind the price at all for what I got. I cleaned up a few of the forks to show how they should eventually look after some careful cleaning.</p><p><br /></p><p>PS: can anyone help me to identify the patterns? So far no luck on the names.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]164980[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164981[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164982[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164983[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164984[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164985[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164986[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]164987[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
