<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DragonflyWink, post: 92476, member: 111&quot;]Given the melting point of pewter, strikes me as a very unlikely material for a brazier - looks like heavily tarnished, and somewhat abused (nasty scratches on the interior) old silver to me, would be surprised if anything else, though unlikely to be of sterling fineness, also have little doubt that it predates silverplating.&nbsp; Engraved dates are not always an indicator of the age, as it can be done at any time after manufacture and can also commemorate an earlier event, but personally, would have no problem with 18th century dating on this piece...</p><p><br /></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
