This is a silver piece from the Wilcox silver plate company which I believe is out of business.

Wilcox was a major firm in the plating world, right into the 1930s; it is out of business, and the piece in your picture looks like it would be from the 1890s. Ornate figural pieces of plate are pretty desirable and your compote (fruit stand, centerpiece bowl, whatever) is very nice in this regard; but I would question whether your cupids were originally standing on something below, which is missing. It looks very odd to have them just dancing about with no base.
