PLAIN PINE Design ROBERTS & BELK LTD Silver Service 60 Piece Canteen of Cutlery
EPNS A1 (Electro Plated Nickle Silver – Highest Quality). 60 piece set of Silver Plated cutlery. 8 Table Knives 25 cm. 8 Table Forks 19.4 cm. 8 Soup Spoons 18 cm. 8 Dessert Knives 21.6 cm. 8 Dessert Forks 17.4 cm. 8 Dessert Spoons 18.2 cm. 8 Teaspoons 12.7 cm. 4 Table Spoons 20 cm. With this set not only will you be adding style to your dining table, but also making sure you are prepared for every eventuality. All pieces are stamped on the underside of the handle of the spoons and forks with the ROBERTS & BELK SHEFFIELD ENGLAND mark and engraved on the blades with the ROBERTS & BELK LTD FURNIVAL WORKS SHEFFIELD ENGLAND mark. All knives have superior quality hollow handles that are silver plated that are silver soldered to world famous Sheffield stainless steel blades. This is a lovely vintage set that has the normal signs of use. It has been recently polished so is clean and ready to use. The case is the original canteen and has quite a few marks with the interior needing some attention but has done a good job protecting its contents and has space for a 3 piece serving set should you every wish to add one of these to the set. Checking through the sets I note that four teaspoons have a different stamp but still carry the RD 798068 (Lamp Logo) mark so are identical to the other pieces and are made by Roberts & Belk. You will find more information about this pattern and maker on the Victoria and Albert Museum website.
