From Publisher:
Introduced in 1742, old Sheffield plate is a form of silver plating which became very popular because its surface looked like solid silver. This book outlines the history of the trade in Sheffield and its spread to Birmingham and elsewhere. It illustrates many fine pieces and tells how to identify and care for the plate.
