<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnnycb09, post: 460119, member: 27&quot;]Hi all. I picked up this bowl at the same place I found the silver shot glasses. Its 5x8 and engraved,some base in Japan. Now I know if &quot;it aint marked,it aint silver&quot; usually,but the weight and the tarnish (as well as the bell like ring and smell) convinced me it might be sterling.First glance I thought Jensen,but after research I found out Miyata was known to copy others designs.Heres where Ive hit a brick wall...any Miyata marks Ive found always seem to indicate what the item is...sterling,silver plate,stainless steel,etc.This bowl has no such indicator,but all Ive found to match the design was a sterling tea set ??? So,what gives ? Could it BE unmarked sterling? It sure FEELS right,but thats not always true. Any input is always welcome.</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/iwYODIL.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/wGi8Stx.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/d8NSxHM.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/jaMORLR.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/vNfwSmo.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
