Is Rogers silverware real silver?
1 Answer
Yes, Rogers silverware is real silver, but how much silver the maker's pieces contain varies. The vast majority of Rogers silverware features silver plating, so it is predominantly a base metal with only a thin layer of silver over top. To determine the content of a particular piece, look for hallmarks on its surface. Then, use trusted online resources or work with an antiques specialist to determine the meaning of the marks. Collectors should note that there are in fact many silver firms with “Rogers” in their name (F.B. Rogers Silver Co., Wm. Rogers Mfg. Co., C. Rogers & Brothers, and more).
