Coming from such areas as China, Russia, Germany and surrounding areas, silver was used for everything from coins to silver plates and cups. Just as with US goods, each and every one has a piece of history attached, and collecting them preserves that piece of history. That is where their value comes into it, as the silver will always grow in price, but the history of the device is where it's true value is.
What one unfortunately finds is a number of people who will buy up non-US silver products and melt them down into fine grade silver and sell it off. These individuals are seeking only the value of the metal and not of the story. True collectors know that it could be made from wide variety of materials, what matters is the story about who or what had it. Antiques are in part about function, in part about their prior use and why. Collecting non-US Silver antiques is a fruitful, rewarding investment that will give you a world of class.
