Re: Gold-plated Coffee & Tea set (possibly 1940s)

Most sets like this from the International silver company date between the two World Wars, 1918-39. values fro them vary by style and pattern, but currently the demand for plated teasets is very modest, a result of downsizing Baby Boomers and the estate clearances of their parents flooding the market. We see comparable sets selling at auction for under $250.00 in most cases.
