Description

The set includes a tea pot, creamer and sugar bowl. They each have a single flower with leaves to the left and right on both sides. The imprint on the bottom is a shield and within the shield say Rogers, Smith & Co. / Meriden,CT/ Quadruple. Under the shield 1800 and under that U.S.A.
The imprint is not on the tea pot.
I am very curious as to when it was made, and what the value might be.

From the research I've done, I know it is silverplated and the 1800 is the pattern # not the year it was made (unfortunately). I know the company was founded in 1857 in Hartford, CT and didn't move to Meriden, CT until 1876. They were bought by International Silver in 1897. I don't know it they continued to use the same imprint after that. If they didn't then the date would be between 1876-1897.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.
