Lot Description

Edwardian silver knives and forks for four place settings and with plain ivory pistol grip handles. Hallmarked Harrison Brothers & Howson (George Howson), Sheffield 1908 and 1909. Knife length measures 8 3/4 inches (22.2 cm), fork length measures 7 1/2 inches (19 cm).  

Export issue: Yes

Postage: Auction Default

Weight: No

Total lot weight: No

The knives and forks display general surface scratches, marks and wear commensurate with the age and use. There is some tarnishing to the silver parts and they would benefit from a clean and polish. Slightly heavier wear to the tips of the fork tines and edges of the knife blades, but they have generally faired well.  There are some little nibbles around the tops of a couple of the blades and the metal appear thinner in this area. Small dints to ferrules. The hallmarks are clear and legible, also hallmarked on the ferrules and some of these are quite rubbed. Cracks and splits to some of the ivory handles.
