Picked up an antique mirror and "suspected but not confirmed" sterling sugar tongs.
The mirror came from a moving sale run by some quite elderly folks. Don't know anything about it but would love to know more. It is very heavy and has a very solid construction. Looking for approximate age, origin, and value?
The sugar tongs arent in the best shape and were tarnished to death when I found them. I polished it up with no problem and it shines now just with some scratches. No monogram or design to speak of but it is hallmarked. I cannot find any info about the hallmarks so I can't even confirm that it's sterling. Anyone have any idea of maker and sterling or not?
