Hi and thank you for your question. The markings are now listed in the description and I have added a picture of the botton in hopes that you can see some of them. It is easily read with a 10x Loop. This was the best picture my camera could get of it. I also included an extra picture to show the detailed cut work around the edges of the piece. Please feel free to ask any other questions or concerns you may have prior to bidding. Thank you.

Is it silverplate or sterling? They're not the same...

Hi thanks for your inquiry. The bowl is 9" W at the largest width in diameter. At the top the bowl is 7" W. It stands 6" High and the bottom base is 4" across. This is a beautiful conversation piece.
