If you can't afford #Silver tableware or decorative items to enlighten your Xmas, then go for some brass... it's cheap - nowadays both cheaper than copper & pewter, even it consists of 50%-80% copper. It's free putting a bit of work in polishing it, so it gets that golden Xmas shine! 🎁🎄🔥 Here are some $5-$10 pieces, in state of purchase vs. polished. They are heavy, sturdy, and resilient:

Xmas China coffee set has arrived.... a few production abnormalities, clearly not A stock. But it was only $3 for 18 #Gold rimmed pieces! 🤷‍♂️

Todays haul of around 3 kgs of #Silver Here is the rest of it.... a pretty nice haul today! 🔥 Too much to mention what it is 🤣 ...but not the knives in the big box is a rare set of sterling blades!
Some of the #Silver unpacked... - Got the silver animals. The two smallest are solid, the others hollow, but still nice weight to them. - The top right spoons are Soviet Era☭ gilded 875 with enamel, typical silver items from that time. - All the floral spoons at the bottom and the coffee spoons above matches spoons I already have. Nice to be able to combine items from these scrap lots to make more or less complete sets 👍🏻

Does anyone recognize these sterling #Silver markings, where it originates from? It's imported to Sweden, but I have no idea about the country of origin or age!

Space optimizing.... Found a new place for the sizable #LEGO Jurassic Park T-rex - it does belong at the movies anyway 🤷‍♂️ Those old plastic cased movies are going soon... I see room for #Silver-ware, LEGO, or other metal stuff there! 😍😆

Precious metals seem 'stuck'... not much happening, #Silver basically flat. #Gold is not showing the positive signs it did last week. 🟢🔴🟢 Bond yields are up a bit, oil is moderately down. Stocks rebounding since last week's horrible showing.

If you have a spoon, unsure if it's #Silver, eat a boiled egg and check if it's a toner! 😳🙌 One egg later:
Breakfast time 🥐☕️ Using the odd plate I found, and 'testing' some random #Silver cutlery - it's a mess 😆 ...and I forgot to bring the butter!

I gotta make some cutlery box style holders for my drawers - it takes up a lot of space when laid out. #Silver looks nice on colored felt:

🚨 Emergency supplies 🚨 Everybody need one of these... Danish🇩🇰 45% schnapps securely locked in a 60mm brass casing. This is last resort, if you run out of ammo, unable to defend your #Silver in case of a zombie apocalypse! 😬 I just found this again. I'm pretty sure I got it as a birthday present 33 years ago! 😂

Bought small silver animals now... They are 830 #Silver and stamped as silverware, going for -14% below melt instead of above melt like most .999 custom pieces. Instead of being solid, they are probably all hollowware, except the smallest one maybe... we'll find out. They are about 0.75 ozt silver each on average! Any thoughts on these? Would you collect them in your stack as bullion? 🤷‍♂️
