Regular price
$1,200.00
Presented is an antique, 19th century set of Dutch silver dinner forks made between 1849 and 1851. This set is .934 silver purity, which is actually higher than .925 sterling silver purity. The forks are done in a very classic form and they have never been monogrammed.
The back of each fork is marked with the Minerva head duty mark, the rampant lion mark for .934 purity silver and a maker's mark. Some forks have a date letter P for the year 1849 and some have an R for 1851.
This set is in excellent overall condition for its age. There is minor surface wear commensurate with age and use but no damages and no repairs.
Length: 8 1/8 inches.
Weight: 711 grams.
