1902 British antique pure silver dessert cutlery, 6 pairs, total 466g, P Ashberry & Sons, wooden box
SKU: 202409074658
We would like to introduce you to an antique British cutlery set.
This was made by P Ashberry & Sons in Sheffield, England in 1902.
This set of six pairs of dessert cutlery has blades and handles made of sterling silver. The blades are decorated with a floral motif, and the handles are decorated with beautiful patterns.
The knife handles are by a different manufacturer, one has been repaired, and three have been replaced with handles from 1937, but the design is the same and there is no sense of incongruity.
Comes in a gorgeous wooden case.
We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
