Greetings, while nice looking and in pretty good physical condition the market for tea and coffee sets is extremely “cold” and has been for years with a pretty dim future as far as interest and revival. They are simply out of favor. All but the special and exceptional sets are trading very close to the value of the silver in them. As a collector of American high Victorian silverwares, even fantastic sets that are 150-200 years old are trading for within 20-30% over the silver (“melt”) value.
