Is 1847 Rogers Bros real silver?

1 Answer
Is 1847 Rogers Bros real silver?
Partly. All 1847 Rogers Bros silverware is silverplate, which consists of a very thin layer of silver over a metal base made from copper, nickel or brass. “1847 Rogers Bros” is a trademark used starting in 1862, when Meriden Britannia Company purchased the hollowware division of Rogers Brothers Mfg. Co. and joined up with independent metalsmiths to form International Silver Co. Shop a range of antique and vintage Rogers Bros 1847 from top boutique sellers on 1stDibs.
