I inherited this joint fork from my grandmother. There are no marks anywhere on the fork nor can I find any info on the pattern. The fork is very heavy but still not sure if it's sterling or silverplate. Any ideas?

It appears to be some kind of Turkey Carving Fork. May have had come in a set with a matching knife. If it is not marked silver I have have to assume it not. Plated maybe? I would say it's a $20.00 piece.

I am trying to identify a set of 12 8.5 inch pewter plates. Fronts appear to be turned and polished, backs hammered. Markings [file] include an eagle, O over M, BTON, and MAR over TINEZ (Martinez)? Also on the edge is a sideways diamond with "s" at each end and part of "s": at top and bottom. They were found in tarnish proof sleeves (11) with a tag "Robert Ensko Inc Silversmiths New York and were in a box with a sterling and ivory handled ladle (pat 1897) and several pieces of mid-1800's English silver plate. I realize they could have been placed in the sleeves at any time. Any help would be appreciated.

I have an enamel over copper large bowl/dish with a pewter floral trim on the rim. It is marked "Mete," but I can't find any info on the maker. I know it's old as it was my grandmother's and now mine for at least 20 years. It's about 20" across. Any info out there? Thanks!

I purchased this item on ebay over a year ago from a woman who said she found it in her grandmother's cupboard. I have searched online and can't seem to figure out what it was used for. Thanks for any help you can give. It has a wooden handle, and the hallmarks on the bottom, as far as we can tell, say EPBM and some other initials.
