What is included in a fish cutlery set?

A fish cutlery set typically comprises matching knives and forks designed specifically for the fish course at formal meals. The knives feature broad, flat blades with notched edges to separate bones. These sets often appear in fitted wooden or leather cases, sometimes housing up to thirty-six pieces for large gatherings.

How do I use knife rests?

Knife rests sit beside each setting on the dining table to hold used knives between courses. This keeps the blades off the linen tablecloth and prevents staining. They are commonly cast in silver plate or cut glass, taking forms from simple bars to sculptural animals.

What distinguishes Edwardian silver from Victorian pieces?

Edwardian silver tends to exhibit lighter, more restrained ornamentation influenced by neoclassical revivals, following the heavy and ornate styles of the late Victorian era. Maker marks and date letters stamped on the metal provide precise verification of the manufacturing year. Specific assay office marks, such as the anchor for Birmingham, help pinpoint the origin of individual items.
