Does anyone have a link to look up values of silver or silverplate? I have a pair of candles sticks that I believe are silverplated. They are both marked WM A Rogers by Oneida Inc silversmiths Never heard of a silver company teaming up with a china company but stranger things have happened

I think both companies have produced silver items. Oneida Silver sounds very familiar, and so does Rogers. But together?! Odd. Good luck.

Try replacements and see if they have it - they now have a gallery search which is really great.

Their prices are, of course, way high. But it's something to go by.

Oh sure neroter12, they really offer a great service for those who can't get that special piece another way. I think they will even identify your piece for you if you email them.
But I would think it would be a waste of money to list something on ebay using their price as a starting price or reserve price.

I have added the candlestick fotos above. Not the best, I know. The tag on both of them say WM A Rogers by Oneida Inc Silversmiths Kind of William Tell looking, aren't they? You expect someone in an old black and white movie to carry one of these going down a dark stair case.
I checked with replacements.com. They have an Oneida but no Wm A Rogers at all. They told me to send fotos for id.
Sanmar, do you happen to know when International took over the rogers/ oneida line? That would be really helpful
