Thanks
Chris

I have just finished washing this piece from my own cupboard, with thoughts of taking it to a consignment shop. It was a wedding gift 40 years ago and I believe it came from my aunt's own china cabinet. Does anyone have any idea of its value? It is a piece I've never used, as it doesn't appeal to me.
