Hey guys not sure where this falls under but I got these at a higher end antique store! Surprised me because the price tag said $38 and I thought it was for each... but it turned out it was for both! This store was selling sterling spoons for $50 and ladles for over $100. Anyways its a pair of sugar and creamer by Ellmore can't find the style online so if anyone could help me out that'd be great!! Also ideas on valuation would be great although I think Ima hang onto these as decor! Here are the pictures! Great condition except for a few dents that look poppable, how do you guys get rid of dents? Total weight was right around 210 grams total.

Finally found this at a thrift, no idea what it is. It looks big and it is but it only weighs 55 grams, got it for $10. Is it a cup or goblet? No idea. Not in the best condition, might be scrap. National sterling.

Your little mystery item is an ice cream dish! You should polish it up and keep it for eating ice cream out of ;)

I say polish them. Keep them and use them. Just my thoughts. They're really nice. Great score!! There's something unique about using sterling with meals. I've used some of my coin silver for eating and wondered what the different meals that piece has seen. Ok, I admit that I'm a food geek!! [emoji51]☠

Those at some nice pieces. You have almost 10 ounces so you definitely did well. Don't think they are worth repairing though.
