My wife and I recently purchased some siver items. One in partiular, has a partially torn sticker on the bottom that reads "sons of Liberty Bowl" by PAUL REVERE. The only thing else that can be read is "repr" and "oneida". I have not a clue as to what I am looking at or what I should be looking for!. Oh Yes I should mention that on the inside of the bowl, it has a red colored inlay finish. Can anyone give me an idea what I have or somewhere I can go on line to find this information. Thanks IP: Logged |

Welcome to the forums. It sounds like you have a silver plate reproduction of a "Revere Bowl" made by Oneida Silversmiths.
The original "Liberty Bowl", is in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. The shape of the Liberty Bowl has inspired many reproductions, called "Revere Bowls" which are often engraved as gifts or presentation pieces. I am not sure of what you mean by "red colored inlay finish" but I suspect you are looking at the base metal (most likely copper) where the silver plate has been polished/worn away. IP: Logged |

I do recall seeing these bowls with the interior of the bowls finished in various colors as well as silverplated. IP: Logged |
