INDEX | ALL SILVER |
DESCRIPTION | Superb set of antique English Victorian sterling silver handled Shell pattern table knives with original steel
blades by Hunt & Roskell and a distinctive crest engraving. Traditional pitch loading so keep out of the hot dishwasher although my silversmith is
currently investigating the possibility of conversion to soldered, dishwasher safe, joints. This listing is for six but
there is a quantity available, £80 each, also available are some carvers. I have recently added an image of the carving/serving pieces. Some would appreciate new blades/tines. I can arrange fitting and can supply basic stainless steel blades and tines. However, an internet search will find some amazing and beautiful blades for sale that I could fit. Best email to discuss further. There is the option of having new stainless blades in your choice of style and finish fitted for no extra charge. |
