[QUOTE="kardinalisimo, post: 9044, member: 118"]I am not sure if that is Old Sheffield Plate or Electroplated. What exactly is this. I see similar described as sugar shakers or muffiners ( whatever that is). If not wrong the crossed keys were used by Early Sheffield makers. Can not tell for sure what is the other mark but it looks like crowned leopard, for made in London. Is not it there also supposed to be a makers mark? Or not necessarily? Any tips on how to get rid of the rust and the verdigris? I am afraid if I scrub the spots too hard that may chip the silver layers.
