1900 - 1920
Description

A fine set of Sheffield 1919 English hallmarked solid silver and mother of pearl cutlery for 12 (12 pairs of knives and forks), made by very good makers George Howson of Harrison Brothers, in the original fitted oak case and bearing the retailers label for

John Hall and Co of Manchester and Liverpool.

The ferules, fork tines and knife blades are fully hallmarked, and the mother of pearl handles have chamfered edges and are extremely lustrous and translucent.

The edges of the knife blades are discreetly engraved with a simple scallop and dot design, as are the heels of the forks, and the silver ferules.

The forks and knives are well balanced in the hand, and the tines and knife points are still sharp.

The set is housed within the original fitted oak case, with vacant brass cartouche. The case is lined with the original green velvet.

A key is not present.

Size-forks are 6 inches long; knives are 7.5 inches long.

Weight for shipping-4 lbs. 3 oz.

Size of wood case-11.5 inches long by 9.5 inches wide by 2.5 inches high.

A beautiful set to use to enjoy dessert, cheese, fruit. It will make a lovely addition to your table setting, or a most treasured gift.
