    Description

    This is a great set. All 3 pieces are stamped on the bottom, "Hecho en Mexico Los Castillo Taxco TA 01".
    The wave (or leaf) form tray is approximately 13 1/2" x 8" x 3". The creamer is 3 3/4" x 4" to the handle, and the sugar is 2 3/4" x 3 1/4" in diameter.
    It is all silverplate. From what I can determine, I believe the inlaid stone is azurmalachite, but I'm no expert. The hammered tray shows signs of plating loss, and the copper shows through. Otherwise it is in nice condition. The sugar and creamer are both very nice with little wear.
    I have not been able to find this particular design in my Google search, so perhaps it is a less common item(?)
    For what it's worth, the set was found at an estate sale in Hollywood, CA. It turned out it was for a member of the Broccoli family of James Bond fame.
