placing's for eighteen, comprising: table forks, table spoons, dessert forks, dessert spoons; ten coffee spoons, ten teaspoons, two mustard spoons, later monogrammed; together with a matched soup ladle, London, 1852, twelve pairs of matched silver fish eaters with matching servers, Elkington & Co., London, 1920, in two sizes; and eighteen modern silver table and dessert knives, James Dixons & Sons Ltd., Sheffield, 2009, in a fitted five-drawer cabinet
Condition
Matched set over four periods. The majority of the service (1899) is of excellent gauge with typical surface wear, nothing too untoward. These pieces are later monogrammed and probably previously erased at this point. The fish eater blades with a little more wear but generally good with clear hallmarks. The cabinet is probably period but the interior redesigned to hold this canteen.
