FREE: SIMEON L. & GEORGE H. ROGERS COMPANY QUADRUPLE PLATE PITCHER

The listing, SIMEON L. & GEORGE H. ROGERS COMPANY QUADRUPLE PLATE PITCHER has ended.

THIS PITCHER WAS MADE BETWEEN 1900-1929 AS THAT IS WHEN THIS COMPANY WAS IN BUSINESS. THE PITCHER IS 2 1/2 HIGH X 3 1/2 FROM HANDLE TO SPOUT & 2 ACROSS. ALL MEASUREMENTS ARE IN INCHES. WEIGHT IS AROUND 4 OUNCES. AND HERE IS WHAT QUADRUPLE PLATE IS : Let's start with the common misconception about "quadruple silver plate" - also known as "quadruple silverplate". Quadruple silver plate items are NOT plated four times, nor do they have four times as much pure silver, known in the industry as .925, as any other hollowware item.

Quadruple silver plate hollowware was some of the highest quality made during the later part of the 19th century. Within the silversmith and silver manufacturing industry, items marked "Standard" silver plate indicated that 2 troy ounces of pure silver were used to silver electroplate 144 teaspoons, but "Quadruple" silverplate used 8 troy ounces of silver to plate the same 144 spoons. HIGHEST BID WINS. GOOD LUCK.
