Description
A beautiful Silver Carving Set Made in Paris.
As the images show, the set is in perfect condition and is an excellent example of what French Silversmiths can manufacture. Both the Knife & Fork is fully marked with Minerva’s head. The silver standard is 950/1000; a very high purity that is shown in the luminosity of the pieces. The blade of the knife is also marked “Acier Fondu Garanti” and bears the Makers Mark A.D. We estimate the age of the set to be 1900-1910. The set is in fantastic condition for its age. The three prong fork is beautiful and is a staple of French design; delicate and forged to perfection. The guard is in terrific order and depicts a stag.
The Carving Knife measures 35cm & weighs 127 Grammes. The Carving Fork measures 30cm and weighs 152 Grammes.
The set is also in the original Presentation Case, but can be sold in a Brand New case upon request.
