That’s electroplate (not sterling) from Dyke Brothers, Glasgow and Sheffield.

Welcome to The Heartbreak of EPNS™. :wink:

With some occasional exceptions, electroplated things sell for very little. They contain virtually no precious metal, and they were produced in their millions. A highly decorative object in pristine condition might bring some cash, but you’ll often see things like silverplate teaspoons being flogged in large batches on eBay: twenty teaspoons, “buy it now” price of £9. or best offer.

Ok, i understand, but here it is not a spoon.
It is a milk pot I think

The mark is C Bros, for Cooper Brothers, rather than D Bros.

Polish it up! If the plating is even halfway decent, it should shine up nicely with a little persistence.

And looking shiny, it would be decorative enough to attract more than pocket change. :wink:

Gothic lettering is always a challenge. :slight_smile:
