<p>[QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 347931, member: 59"]Nice! The Aurora Silver Plate Manufacturing Company was "organized under charter from the Illinois Legislature in 1869..." (Quote from Rainwater) I agree that the top looks like it was originally paired with something else, but this bottom definitely had a top, likely shorter than this one and decorated with bands similar to those on the base. That kind of decor was popular in the late 1870's through the 1880's. The face on the legs is very similar to the Assyrian Head flatware pattern of 1886 (Rogers and Bros.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
