INDEX | ALL SILVER |
DESCRIPTION | Scarce set of six Georgian pitch loaded solid sterling silver Old English and Thread pattern table knives with a crest engraving and original/old blades. All blades are by Garrards, four are the original Georgian steel and two are exactly matching Victorian replacements. All have been recently re-loaded with fresh pitch and are now fit for use but best to keep them out of very hot water and the dishwasher. If stored for extended periods without use, I recommend lightly smearing the blades with olive oil. |
