    Most of the items have small impressed marks. Maybe low content silver. Wondering if I should polish. DSC_0797.JPG DSC_0799.JPG DSC_0800.JPG DSC_0798.JPG

    Nice collection, trip. Most are Chinese. I think I spotted some that could be Western Asia, possibly India, those tall lidded things. The tallest one looks like it could be the oldest item of the lot.
    I don't see any Tibetan items. Tibet has always had a small population, so there aren't that many Tibetan items around.
