Questions About 8 Reales Silver
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Whether or not antique silver is real depends on the piece. Sometimes, manufacturers simply call a gray-silver finish antique silver. In these cases, the item is usually not real silver. It is possible for antique silver to be pure silver, sterling or silver plated. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of silver decorative objects and jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Yes, Sheffield silver is part real silver, part copper. Sheffield manufactured what is known as a Sheffield plate, which is a “double sandwich” form of plating—it has a sheet of silver on each side of a piece of copper. Shop a selection of Sheffield pieces on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    It depends on the make and model whether or not silver cutlery contains real silver. Some flatware contains a percentage of sterling silver, however, not all silvertone flatware contains silver. Shop a wide collection of flatware, including silver, on 1stDIbs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024
    Yes, Poole Silver is real silver. However, the American silversmith didn't produce all of its pieces out of solid silver. Poole developed an electro-plating technique that allowed a thin, durable layer of silver to be applied over sturdy base metals. On 1stDibs, find a range of Poole Silver Co. silver wares.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024
    Yes, Taxco silver is real silver. Pieces bearing the Taxco mark come from silversmith workshops located in Taxco, Mexico. The region has been known as a major center for silver production since the 1920s. Find a diverse assortment of Taxco silver jewelry, tableware and decorative objects on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Yes, Gorham silver is real silver, however, the silver content changes depending on the item. Some Gorham items are sterling silver, which isn’t pure silver, but a mix of mostly silver and a small amount of another alloy, likely copper. Some other Gorham items are silver-plated. Shop a collection of Gorham silver jewelry from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Yes, Russian silver is real silver, but it gets a little confusing because they do not have the same sterling silver standards that Europe, Australia, Canada, the United States and other countries associated with the British Commonwealth have. Russian silver is roughly 94.79% pure silver and the rest is copper or other alloys. The British Commonwealth silver standard uses 92.5% pure silver and the rest is copper or other alloys. Shop a collection of authentic Russian silver from some of the worlds top boutiques on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 12, 2024
    One way to tell if silver is real is to look for a hallmark stamp. A stamp reading STER, 925, 999 or 800 indicates that a decorative object, tableware piece or jewelry item is made from a silver alloy. If you have difficulty determining whether or not an item is genuine silver, consult an experienced jeweler, appraiser or antiques dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of silver decorative objects, tableware and jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024
    Yes, Christofle is real silver. The French silversmith produces pieces out of sterling silver that are roughly 93% pure silver and 7% copper. In addition, Christofle offers silver-plate items, which have a thin layer of 99.9% fine silver over a base metal. Explore a selection of Christofle silver wares on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Yes, the International Silver Company produced real silver products. The marking IS, or International Silver, does not indicate the purity of the silver. In order to determine if the piece is real silver, look for the mark “925,” which indicates sterling silver.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Yes, Towle Silversmiths are real silver. The luxury silverware brand uses sterling silver, which is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% of other metals, usually copper. On 1stDibs, you can find a collection of authentic Towle Silversmiths pieces from some of the worlds top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Tiffany & Co. only uses sterling silver to create their silver jewelry designs. With proper care, the sterling silver of your gorgeous piece will last from generation to generation. You can shop a collection of Tiffany & Co. jewelry from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To tell whether your goblet is real silver, you’ll note that it will be less shiny and a colder tone than silverplate. If you see the silver flaking or turning green, it is most likely not real silver. On 1stDibs, find a collection of expertly vetted silver goblets from some of the world’s top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024
    Yes, Rogers silverware is real silver, but how much silver the maker's pieces contain varies. The vast majority of Rogers silverware features silver plating, so it is predominantly a base metal with only a thin layer of silver over top. To determine the content of a particular piece, look for hallmarks on its surface. Then, use trusted online resources or work with an antiques specialist to determine the meaning of the marks. Collectors should note that there are in fact many silver firms with “Rogers” in their name (F.B. Rogers Silver Co., Wm. Rogers Mfg. Co., C. Rogers & Brothers, and more). Shop a collection of antique silverware on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 13, 2024
    Yes, some Pandora earrings are real silver. The jewelry maker offers a wide range of earrings made of .925 sterling silver. In addition, it offers white, rose and yellow gold pieces. Explore a selection of Pandora jewelry from some of the world's top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024
    Yes, Walker & Hall silver is generally real. However, pieces made by the silversmith usually aren't solid silver. Most silver wares produced by Walker & Hall are silver-plate, meaning they consist mostly of a base metal to which a thin layer of genuine silver is applied. Shop a selection of Walker & Hall silver wares on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 16, 2024
    Whether Napier jewelry is real silver depends on the piece. The American jewelry maker is best known for producing costume jewelry and using plating to give base metals the look of precious metals like sterling silver and gold. However, Napier did make an assortment of genuine sterling silver jewelry. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Napier jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 25, 2024
    To tell if silverware is real silver, examine its markings. You may need a magnifying glass to do so. Most real sterling silver silverware will feature a hallmark that says "925," "STER" or "92.5%." If you're unable to find or clearly see a marking, consult a knowledgeable expert, such as an appraiser or antiques dealer, for assistance. On 1stDibs, shop a wide variety of silverware.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022
    Yes, Gorham sterling is real silver. However, sterling silver is not solid silver. Instead, the metal is an alloy formed out of pure silver and another precious metal. You can shop a selection of Gorham decorative objects and serveware on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    In order to tell whether silverware is real silver, buff the utensil with a non-abrasive soft white cloth and if the silver is real it will leave a slight black mark from tarnish.
