Reuzeit Emporium has a large selection of antique and vintage sterling and silver plate objects from the finest United States Companies, including Pairpoint, Meriden, Roger Smith, Homan, Van Bergh, Tuffs, and Rock ford Silver. All that's glitters is not gold. It could be silver or silver plate. Silver plate means the object has been coated with a thin layer of silver. The term quadruple plate means the object has been coated four times. Often an object was embellished with designs using a variety of different techniques. Repousse is a technique where the metal is shaped by hammering from the reverse side to create a design in low relief. Chasing is the opposite because the metal is worked from the front to refine the design by sinking the metal. Sometimes the design is engraved, this is when the metal is actually cut away with a sharp tool. Around 1890, a satin finish was very poplar. A fine dark pockmarked surface was produced against which the hand-engraving stood out in bright relief. Today very few items are produced using these techniques. Select items include, antique pickle casters, antique toast holders, antique caster sets, condiment holders, vintage bowls, a vintage silver perfume set, & much much more.
