marked
PAIRPOINT
P
4970
This item polished up very nicely was more grey looking and i bought it for 1$ at a garage sale
I CHECKED EBAY AND ETSY
- only saw pairpoint items that all had different markings on the bottom
Question is
-What is this thing?
-Is it silverplated?
-ia this item pre 1900s?
-Maybe what it is worth?

Re: PAIRPOINT SILVER LATE 1800S? SILVER? OR SILVER PLATED?
Your piece is silver plated, anything that is solid silver will be marked "Sterling" or it's numerical equivelent "925" ( 92.5 % pure silver) . Pairpoint operated as an original company from 1880 until 1958 . This looks like it was once part of something else, the top part missing.
