The only piece that has been used was the sugar bowl and I only used it the last few years. All pieces are stamped Leonard Silverplated and the platter is stamped Leonard Silverplated Italy. I had all these pieces professionally cleaned and coated around 2005 so they would not tarnish.
They have not needed polishing since then except the sugar bowl because I was using it and it polished right up easily. The lid is attached to the tea/coffee pot. No dents or dings just normal aging as shown in pictures. From a pet and smoke free home.
Tea/Coffee Pot including finial: 9.5 H. 9.5 W including spout and handle. Sugar Bowl including lid and finial: 4 H.
5.25 W including handles. 4.75 W including spout and handle.
Enjoy these beautiful pieces without all the work of polishing! They make a stunning display.
