ASSAY OFFICE | London |
WEIGHT in GRAMS | 198 |
LENGTH | 8", 202mm |
SILVER STANDARD | .925 sterling silver |
CONDITION | heavy, long and level tines, no engraving or erasure. There are some grey marks to the front of the two central tines on one fork that I have highlighted using special lighting. This is fire-stain that was incorporated into the metal at the ingot stage. I have polished to reduce it by 50% but decided to leave the remainder as I do not know how deep it goes, much like the ripple in a raspberry ripple ice cream. Under most normal lighting the stain is not visible. |
