<p>[QUOTE="Darkwing Manor, post: 381750, member: 738"]I agree 100% on the care and polishing of silver. On the other hand, here in Oregon, "shabby and industrial /rusty chic" is the current style. I recently helped a friend liquidate an estate. The dealer who puchased ALL the silver requested that it NOT be polished. Blackened or completely polished away silver plate is what is selling in the current markets here. Sometimes they even suffer the indignity of being painted. [ATTACH=full]131915[/ATTACH] If you're planning on selling, it's a curious thing to know.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
