<p>[QUOTE="ola402, post: 9432268, member: 182"]Looking at the tarnish, I thought the piece looks like it would be fairly easy to polish, unlike plate which is usually difficult and frequently has dark spots after you think it's clean. Then I saw how the lip of the pitcher and the foot turn under as I've seen in inexpensive sterling pieces. It's like a large piece of sterling silver was pressed thin and then shaped into a pitcher. Maybe in a form? I dunno. I'm not all that well versed (as you are) in spotting the clues, but it just doesn't look plated to me. I will admit that I didn't really look closely at the handle.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
