    NICE PERIOD 18TH CENTURY SHEFFIELD PLATE CAULDRON FOOTED SALTS--SILVER FUSED TO COPPER
    As with most Sheffield plate some of the silver here and there is either worn through to copper or flaked off a bit, but not very much, considering.  The three feet are like penny feet and have a shell-like attachment at the body.  There are 3 pseudo hallmarks on the underside: 2 crossed keys, a harp, and 2 letters that are possibly DG, but not sure (they are done in a Gothic style).  There are no inserts if they ever had them.
    No evidence of damage or repairs; just honest wear from use and the ages.
    About 2 1/4" diameter
