The bottom is stamped - Quadruple Plate - Wilcox Silver Plate Co - (Cross hammers symbol) - 861Since this piece is so old I do not know what the original condition looked like. It has a tiny mark on top of the base that I do not know if it is damage or original. All of the soldiering points look primitive to me so I cannot tell if they are all original or not. Please see all of the photos for condition and bid accordingly.
