Description

This is a set of 6 compote dishes(?) in excellent, uncleaned condition, in original box. The markings on the bottom of the base are R B (each inside a small "square) and the number 501 or 509. They are marked "sterling reinforced with cement". Age unknown. Not ornate. Thank you so much for any assistance. I don't use twitter so if you would like to contact me, I would appreciate your help at [email protected].
