Tray

Came across this Poole and Leonard. Can’t find much info on it. Does anyone know its history or its potential value? Thank you!

 

Have you seen this thread?

Silver-plated, probably from the last third of the 20th century. I see that the mark also mentions the Towle company. Poole was bought by Towle in the 1970s. Value is nominal, IMHO. Silver-plated trays (and other stuff) abound in my local thrifts.

 

And this one has been treated very poorly

 

Thank you for the info definitely helpful!

 

Do you think by any chance it’s real silver? Tried some at home tests such as a magnet and it’s not magnetic, melted ice on it and a frying pan and it melted much faster, it’s a bit heavy too I weighed it and it’s almost 10lbs a little less.

 

It's only "real silver" as opposed to silver plate if it is marked Sterling.

 

Sorry, no.
