ANTIQUE #SA876934

Pair Of Paul Storr Georgian Silver Dessert Forks

Status: This item has been sold
Sold by: The Silver Cabinet

A good pair of solid sterling silver dessert forks made by the great Paul Storr.
 
They are hallmarked on the reverse for London 1815. Formed in the fiddle and thread pattern, they are heavy items, as one would expect from such a notable silversmith. There are initials on the reverse and some wear to the tines, as can be seen in the photographs. Good quality Georgian flatware usually carries a family crest or initials, as it was the practice to take one''s own cutlery out to dinner at somebody else''s house and these inscriptions enabled the pieces to be correctly identified at the end of the meal.
