Formal Dinner Question?

dweave93

Is the best type of silverwear sterling? Is the best type of dishes bone china? Is there anything better than that? And, is there anything better than lead crystal glasses? And at an extremely formal dinner are there napkins....I know that most people want napkins, but is that the most formal thing to do? and, what are the napkins made out of? Silk? Thanks

Answer
At most formal dinners, the flatware is sterling silver. Stainless steel is a type of flatware that is more for every day use because it does not have to be polished. Bone china is the place setting to use and the napkins are normally linen. There is nothing better than lead crystal glasses, but just remember there are different stemware that you use, there are water goblets, iced tea goblets, and even wine glasses to name a few.

Selling stainless steel silverwear at we buy gold?

I received a huge set of silverware for christmas a few years back, and i haven't even opened it. tho i want to keep most of the silverware, some of it i have no use for. all together i want to sell 3 sets of place setting silverware, which include a salad fork, dinner fork, knife, dinner spoon, and teaspoon. i also have a butter knife to get rid of. i read on a we buy gold sign that they buy steering silver sets. if anyone would have a guestament as to how much i could possible get for these, that would be awesome!

Answer
They buy silver metal items, and generally not stainless Steel. The term silverware is used loosely today. The question is whether your items are made of silver or steel.
Silver is usually marked Sterling on it somewhere. There is also silver plated that is mid-grade and woth much less.
