Made by the Rockford Silver Plate Co. Rockford Ill. , and dates to 1880s. Stands 6 7/8" tall and 6" across to tips of handles. Has a very shallow dent , early noticeable on top of rim. Other than that in great condition for age. Have not attempted to polish but this is quadruple plated and will probably polish nicely , but I prefer the dark patina.
