<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ola402, post: 517446, member: 182&quot;]The gold trim on these dishes reminds me of the Rambler Rose decoration that we see frequently on glassware.&nbsp; The gold is tarnished and not showing the dishes at their best.&nbsp; I usually use a very mild silver polish on my gold trim items.&nbsp; I use Hagerty&#039;s Silver Foam.&nbsp; It&#039;s a paste used with a wet sponge and I do not press hard, just very lightly and the gold really shines.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>You need to add measurements to your ebay listing.&nbsp; I assumed at first that these were dessert plates.&nbsp; IMHO, $2K is not realistic.&nbsp; I&#039;ve seen some ebay sellers get great prices for gold encrusted dinner plates, but their listings have a certain cache (professional photos, stunning backgrounds, etc) and they have been selling for years.&nbsp; And their wares usually say names like Haviland, Rosenthal, and the like.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>So you have a real challenge with these items.&nbsp; I could go on and on but it would get tedious and for most here, preaching to the choir.&nbsp; Start out by researching Gold Encrusted Plates and see what comes up and what price was realized.&nbsp; Hope that helps.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
