What is the Value of Two silver bird salt and peppers?
Well, first off, when I get a silver object, or something that appears to be silver, I test it to see if it is solid silver or silver plate. That is the first thing. Should it be silver, you can go and type it in on "ebay" and you should find a couple of things similar to what you have and could possibly find a good answer that way. If it is solid silver, it should also be hallmarked as such and hopefully the makers marks.
A tray I have is non-magnetic which makes me think it is sterling silver. How do you determine if something is silver plated or sterling silver?
In the US, sterling silver will ALWAYS be hallmarked with the word "sterling" or "925." Silver plated will never be hallmarked. Anything plated with a precious metal, no matter how thick the plating, will never be hallmarked.Neither sterling nor silverplate is magnetic, unless the plating is over a steel or iron core, which is rarely the case.

What does 725 on silver mean?
Are you sure it doesn't say 925 instead? Often I find that '925' often looks like it says '725' when hallmarked. All '925' means is that your item is silver. :-)
