How do you clean an antique silver brush for use?

I would like to use said brush myself. Can you soak an antique silver brush in peroxide? They usually are silver or silver plate, the bristles are usually natural hair, and it's usually set in wood.

If not peroxide, do you know of any other way to get said brush clean of many years' dirt?

Where to sell antique 1930s Sterling flatware…?

I have a 12 place setting, sterling silver flatware set from the 1930s, Oneida's "King Cedric".
It's been appraised at about 000.

In the research I've done so far, the most expensive one that sold is around 60 on ebay. So ebay's not the way to go on expensive items apparently.

Does anyone know a good place to sell these and get a price around the 000 (or close to it)?

Thanks.

How do I clean the inside of an antique, sterling silver flask?

I purchased a 100 year old flask, and am weary of using it until I can be sure the inside is perfectly clean--bacteria, corosion, etc. I was thinking of using the boiling water with baking soda and aluminum foil method, followed by a rinse with white vinegar, but don't know if this is adequate. Suggestions??

What chemicals are used to “antique” silver?

I recently bought a lighter with a nice faux-antique silver plate finish, but when I had it engraved the moron polished the damn finish off. I would like to restore it, or even take it a step further (I'm quite fond of the dirty look - I just don't want to take the silver plate off).

These are things I've tried, so do not mention them:
Saltwater
Vineagar/Lemon Juice
If anyone also knows what would do the same thing to brass, copper and or other finishes I'd like to do the same to some of my other lighter.
