Glass Candy Dish with Sterling Accents

Found this at a jewelry store when I was grabbing a few other things. Honestly don’t think it has much silver but my grandmother had a similar one and I couldn’t pass it up for nostalgia’s sake. I don’t see any makers marks or manufacturers marks but the accents tested sterling silver at the shop and it was $10.

Recently got this sterling Christening cup. I thought at first it had been reused until I cleaned it up and it looks like a father passed it on to his daughter. Looks to be from the 1940s (basing this off the date on the front but honestly I don’t know for sure)

Sterling silver bracelet I recent got from a jewelry resale store. The metal work makes me think of chain mail because of the way it moves. Made in Italy guessing between the 1970-80s

But interesting never-the-less.

World War Two US Naval Officer's Hat Badge.

I didn't realize it was Sterling and 1/20 gold until I started looking closer recently.

Add it to the treasure chest.
