Description

I acquired a gorgeous silver plated antique sugar bowl and creamer, made by George Richmond Collis, in Birmingham, England around 1863. They are hand-etched on both sides and are quite substantial, at 11.68 and 9.14 oz. The handles are very unique, as they resemble an ear, with a point on top. The creamer has one handle and the sugar bowl has two large handles. 

I'm sure these are valuable, but I have no idea of their actual worth. Since they are something I've never seen before, I would love to find out a little more about them, and what I might be able to ask for them.

Thanks so much,

Karis
