Presented is a wonderful set of 12 Spanish silver dinner knives made in the 1930s-1950s. Each knife has a huge, beautiful stainless steel blade and silver handles. The silver is at 916 silver purity, approximately that of sterling. These dinner knives come from a Spanish flatware set, and all the pieces were marked 916 purity silver except the knives. We have tested the knife handles and we guarantee they are 916 purity as well. The rest of the set is no longer with the knives. The pattern depicts a swag, flowers and acanthus leaves framing an elegant border, and is really quite tasteful. All the knives are monogrammed with the letter F in bold font.
As mentioned earlier, the knives come from a Spanish flatware set in which all the pieces but the knives were marked for the location of manufacture and 916 silver purity. We have tested the handles with nitric acid and guarantee the handles to be 960 silver. The blades are all marked Firth Stainless.
The condition is excellent. The stainless steel blades look like they have never been used. The decoration on the silver handles has little to no wear and is still very crisp. There are no breaks, no dents, no monogram removals and no repairs.
The knives measure approximately 10 1/2 inches long.
The total weight of the knives is 33.255 ounces or 942.8 grams. This weight includes the stainless steel blades, the silver handles, and any filler in the silver handles.
