This is a nice set, it's Sterling silver , made in Sheffield , England in 1896 by William Gallimore & Sons. Rigth now silver bullion prices are quite high, meaning some times a set like this is worth more because of it's siver content than it's value as an antique. At auction this set should go for about $250.00
