<p>[QUOTE="johnnycb09, post: 653140, member: 27"]Hi all. Picked this lovely thing up a few days ago,and I must say I dont think Ive ever encountered something quite so deeply tarnished ! I should have taken a before pic.its 4 1/2 by 4 1/2 and marked "800" .It had an old dealer tag on it that had no info,just a bunch of numbers.That square is what the rest should look like,but after my hands started cramping I gave up for a while. I found it in a shop I rarely venture into as they have no air conditioning in a big old warehouse ! The lady who runs it saw me looking at it and said thats not sterling but you can polish it with...wait for it...Brasso ! Shades of the DEEP ! Any input would be greatly appreciated. </p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/rrHEd9V.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/0QTc9zB.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/v4d0qPS.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/6zy2jVR.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/QMwUgB5.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
