….*part of the reason English Silverplate endures and is sought of after always isn’t just the neoclassical styling,which is gorgeous but the plating itself. Sterling Silver is fused with Copper not alloys or base metal,and this hold the fuse forever or close to and gives a long time between polishing and a hearty weight which is why we always have a good olde tea set made of English Silverplate on hand
