    I acquired these 2 items, but there are no markings of any kind. I thought maybe some sort of candy dish? About 12 inches high. Anyone offer to try to identify them as to age , use, or maker? I am not sure they are all silver ,perhaps silver coated? Thanks your the best!

      Silver plated. I can tell by the color of the patina. Plated silver turns a very dark bluish/purplish color. Solid silver just turns an ash color or black, depending on the age of the piece. These dishes are usually used to hold candies or other small pieces of food/snacks. These aren't antiques (cross hatch screw in the bottom) and not Asian. Not possible to tell you who made them.
