This set is in fabulous condition. The set looks unused. There are no splits, no dents, no monograms, no monogram removals, and no repairs.
This set comes with an optional, free, bonus box as seen in the photographs. The box is a felt lined wooden box. The box has surface wear but is effective in protecting the set against tarnishing. This box is free, and is not considered to be part of the value of this auction. If you do not want the box let us know, and we do not need to ship it.
The set weighs 2927 grams or 103.2 regular ounces, NOT including the knives and pie server due to their stainless steel blades. Since the knives do have sterling silver handles, there is even more than this gram weight worth of sterling silver in the entire set.
