Description

Offered here a RARE Louis XV solid sterling Meat / Serving Fork by Durgin c.1891 that would make a magnificent addition to your Louis XV set or by itself a unique and lovely sterling silver serving set. These antique pieces are perfect for collectors or anyone who appreciates the fine Art Nouveau styling of this set. Both the fork and spoon are large 8 3/4" long with handles featuring the beautiful Louis XV Nouveau pattern design on the front AND back sides of the handle. A truly versatile set that could also be used alone as a casserole or berry spoon and large meat/vegetables serving fork. The Art Nouveau design adds a touch of elegance to your holiday or dinner party serving pieces sure to impress and be the envy of your guests. This SOLID sterling Meat Serving fork is well over a hundred years old and has been left with original with lovely aged silver patina that only comes with age and as such does exhibit some surface wear commensurate with storage and use over that period. I don't machine buff or polish as a I know a lot of collectors prefer a natural look so I leave a final polishing decision up to the buyer. Whether it's for a special occasion or everyday use this serving piece is a must have for anyone who loves the beauty and functionality of antique silverware. Track Page Views With Auctiva's Counter
