Due to the downsizing of

Due to the downsizing of households and inheritances, there has been a huge number of late 19th to mid 20th century silverplate items entering the antique market in recent years, the end result has been a drop in values for all but the very best pieces. Most trays of this type today sell for less than $150.00.
