Re: Birmingham Silver Co. Tea Set, 9 Pc

Not a huge demand for these silver plated tea services, a lot depends on the condition of the silver plating, something that can't be determined until you polish them up. Sets like this, if they are well polished can go for about $200.00 at auction, $50.00 if they are badly tarnished. Here is an Auction link for you:
