Description
this is a four piece tea set made by the Middlesex Silver Co. It is etched on the pitcher, has detailed design on the legs, spouts and handles. It includes the pitcher, tea pot, sugar bowl with lid and the creamer. It is quadruple silver plated. I researched the Middlesex Silver Co. and couldn't find much info on them at all. I am very curious to find out anything I can on this piece.

History
a friend of my family had to clear a little guest house out after him mother passed; he was very distraught at the time so I offered to help, when we were done he insisted I take this teaset as a token of gratitude for helping; I really didn't want to take it but he insisted so that is how I ended up with this tea set

Re: Middlesex Silver Co four piece tea set
Values for silverplate depends a great deal on condition, you'll have to polish it up to determine wow well thw plating has stood up. If the plating is good comparable sets without a tray sell for under $250.00.
