My grandmother gave me these a few pieces of silver,she didn't care to polish anymore. I'd love to know more about them. Where are they from, approx date of manuf. etc.?

Any information will be greatly appreciated.

A friend told be she thinks the first item is called a silent butler.

Your 'Silent Butler' is silverplated, made by The Sheffield Silver Company of Brooklyn N-Y - it is probably 1940's.

The Coat of Arms on the lid is just stamped on in order to make the piece look grander!

This company made large quantities of silveplated ware in 'antique' styles thru the 1920's to 1960's smile
