Question
I recently received my parents 12 place setting set of sterling Reed and Barton silver. Not antiques but from their wedding 75 years ago (approximately). How do I value it?
Hello David. If you'll tell me what pattern it is and how many pieces you have per place setting, I can give you a value. If you don't know the pattern name, you can either post a picture of it here or look it up online at SterlingFlatwareFashions.com or Replacements.com.
Regards,
Michelle
