    It is silver, it is not sterling silver.

    Certainly European, possibly Italian. I can see another mark there that may be a makers mark.

    Style looks like late 19th C. when insanely complicated was one of the fashions.

    Thanks for your input I'll post a closer pic of the makers mark that may help identify. I also understand it is not full sterling it is only 800. Thanks
