r/silverware

Hello I recently cleaned a set of quite tarnished silver plated silverware that I got from an old auntie so I scrubbed it a bit with bar keepers friend until the spots are gone but they look clean, then the next day I am using them in the kitchen and I put them in like a container of tap water and the next 30 mins to an hour 3 of them turned greenish with one of em having black spots, is it still ok to use them for plating and cooking etc?

Wondering if you have an idea of what this silverware might be worth. We are planning on selling it. Our family is from Ratón, New Mexico but it might be from Indiana. We are not clear where it came from but hoping to get an idea of how much to sell it for. Thank you for your help!

I got to clean out a unit at my work and stumbled across these! I’ve done some research and it seems like this was a families personal set since all the back sides have initials or names on them, but I was hoping to get more info since most of my silver collecting is in coins and I also just wanted to share this super cool find. I’ll try to put the rest of the pictures in the comments.

Anything is appreciated and thanks in advance!

Not sure if this is silver, or what it is used for. Found in my mom’s china cabinet.

Novice here… This is obviously Oneida - and I thought Sumatra but I’m not certain with it. And it seems bronze - gold in Color (is that an age thing) any help appreciated

Edit: there is a Thailand stamp on them as well which seems off for Oneida

Hi,

I’ve been handed a cutlery set by a grandparent, I’d love to get a bit more info on what the symbols mean and the engraving.
It’s all in this wooden box again I’d love to get some info on where it was made etc.

Thanks!

Hi everyone. I'm moving soon and it's time to upgrade my dishware. I found these beautiful side dishes on Amazon that I want to base the rest of my kitchen around.

Problem is it's surprisingly hard to find spiral dishware. Does anyone have any recommendations on matching sets for this? Or recommendations on other subreddits to post on?

TIA!

Purchased at a thrift shop. 2 bowls with same design. Any information is greatly appreciated. I would like to clean them but will hold off if they are actually valuable.
