<p>[QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 70127, member: 59"]That's an interesting question. So many of the better-known names belong to bigger conglomerates (like Lifetime Brands) now. I now that a lot of stainless is made elsewhere (like Korea) and silverplate has been moving abroad for a couple decades (Spain and Italy started it, but it may have moved to Asia now.) As sterling and silverplate both started to go out of fashion in favor of materials that require less picky maintenance, it wouldn't surprise me that some gave up sterling altogether. I have no specific details though.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
