Up for auction is a vintage National Silver Company sterling weighted holder. Marked NS Co Sterling Weighted on the underside.
This small decorative piece could have originally been used as a toothpick holder, individual vase, bud vase, or tabletop accessory. It features a classic pedestal form with a flared top and weighted base.
Please note that this piece has significant condition issues. There are numerous dents, dings, bends, and signs of heavy wear throughout. The silver surface shows scratches, tarnish, plating loss, and age-related imperfections. Due to the amount of damage present, this item is being offered strictly as found, for restoration, parts, repair, or scrap value consideration.
Weight is approximately 54.94 grams. As marked, this is a sterling weighted item, meaning the actual silver content is less than the total weight due to the weighted interior construction.
A good candidate for a silver recovery lot, restoration project, or addition to a collection of damaged sterling items.
