I am offering for sale this magnificent old silver French creamer/sauce pot. It is a piece of high quality, characterized by a substantial thickness of silver and an elegant design. Details of the item: Material: French Solid Silver (950/1000). Hallmarks: Minerva 1st Title hallmark (a head of Minerva in an octagon) clearly visible on the edge, guaranteeing the silver purity of 950 thousandths.
