- Is Leonard silver real silver?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024Yes, Leonard silver is real silver. However, the Leonard Silver Company electroplated most of its pieces, crafting them from base metal and finishing them with a thin layer of genuine silver. During the 1970s, Towle purchased Leonard Silver and continued to produce silver-plate serving trays and other silver-plated tableware under the brand name through the late 20th century. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of silver wares.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 15, 2024Yes, Leonard silverplate is real silver, but it is not solid silver. By definition, silverplate is a base metal finished with a thin layer of genuine silver. During the mid-20th century, Leonard Silver Manufacturing became widely known for producing economically priced silverplate pieces inspired by Victorian silverware and tableware. In 1979, the company merged with the Towle Manufacturing Co., and production of Leonard silverplate ceased. Explore a diverse assortment of silver wares on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Silver platters are solid silver or silver-plated. In order to qualify as pure silver, an object must be made from at least 92.5% pure silver. For example, most sterling silver is around 7.5% copper, which helps strengthen the piece and give it longevity. Shop a collection of antique and modern silver platters from some of the worlds top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024Yes, a silver platter may be worth something. Solid silver pieces likely have value simply due to the going market rate for silver precious metals. In addition, both solid silver and silver-plated platters may be sought by collectors based on their age, style and other factors. Some collectors look for platters made by specific manufacturers, such as Tiffany Co., Gorham and Christofle. If you'd like to receive a professional valuation for your piece, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. Shop a variety of silver platters on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024To tell if a platter is real silver, search the piece for purity hallmarks. Marking systems vary by country, so research the ones on your piece using trusted online resources to determine the metal. If you can't find any markings, try holding a magnet near your platter. Solid silver isn't magnetic. As a result, you can conclude that your piece is silver-plated or crafted out of an entirely different metal if a magnet sticks to its surface. If you need help identifying your platter's material, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can be of service. Find a selection of silver platters on 1stDibs.
