A "tea set" will usually be of British manufacture (tea being the British national drink). If so then a silver tea set will have each piece hallmarked. The hallmark for silver is a small indented stamp made by the assay office.

Yes it is sterling silver
Tea sets are not usually made of solid silver throughout; instead, they are often made from silver-plated materials or a combination of metals. Solid silver tea sets are less common and can be quite expensive. Many tea sets are crafted from stainless steel or other metals with a silver coating to provide an elegant appearance without the high cost of solid silver. Always check the specifications to determine the material composition of a specific tea set.

There are many steps one can follow when taking care of a silver tea set. One should polish the set at least once a year with a soft cloth and silver polish. Harder cloths can damage the silver. Wash it out with water every so often and store in an air tight drawer.
You can tell if you have an F B Rogers silver tea pot by looking at the stamp on the bottom of the pot. It shows when the pot was made, the material, brand, and sometimes even a serial number.
