Rhodium, from the platinum family, is a metal that does not tarnish. It is plated over silver so that you do not have to clean it as often. It is much shinier than silver though, a true lover of sterling silver may not like the shine of rhodium.

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.
