I emailed them yesterday but I have already gotten 5 e-mails back all of them saying it is copper with silver plating. Some were even very rude saying it was not worth more than $20

even I know that someone would pay a $100 for it.

I will probably keep it as $100 wont make a dent in my enourmous debt and it is so pretty. I dont know maybe I will sell it, cant deside.

If it's silver plated copper= the copper alone is worth more than $20. What a bunch of snobs!

Spend some time collecting matching pieces. Then sell it as a set. Mismatched pieces often sell cheap. Once you have them collected with matching pieces, they are often worth more. Here is a pretty set by that maker on Ebay.
