[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 2658359, member: 111"]You describe your piece as silverplated, but to my eye, appears to have the look of nickel silver or nickel plating - was it tarnished? Little luck on the manufacturer of the frame, suspect surname would something like 'Schuster' or 'Schumacher' (shoemaker) - there's also the possibility it was one of the Jewish firms lost in 1930s Germany. Did find a couple of other pieces, but the maker still unidentified - one warmer described as chrome-plated brass, and a knife rack described as brass or copper (suspect originally plated).
