    It is getting harder and harder to still find vintage and antique, beautiful silver items, especially with silver prices being what they are.
    Too many beautiful things getting torched and melted.  Sad!
    I do not polish vintage Silver items, as I have found out that the majority of buyers, prefer patina .
