EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this exquisite collection of Electro silver-plated dessert knives and forks, Plate 221, dating back to the 1880s. This Victorian-era set showcases an array of dessert knives and forks, each with unique shapes and designs that add elegance and charm to any table setting. The knives and forks in this collection exhibit a range of ornate and plain designs, reflecting the diverse tastes and preferences of the time. The handles, made of electro-plated metal, boast intricate patterns, from the delicate curves of the lion and unicorn motifs to the bold lines of the coat of arms and heraldry-inspired designs. The crowns and other decorative elements add an air of regality and sophistication. The history of this Plate 221 set can be traced back to the skilled hands of silversmiths and artisans of the 1880s. The electroplating process, which involved coating the metal with a thin layer of silver, was a popular method for creating affordable yet elegant silverware during this period. The result was a stunning range of cutlery that combined the durability of metal with the beauty of silver. This collection offers a glimpse into the rich history of dessert cutlery, a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the past. Whether used for a formal dinner party or a special occasion, these dessert knives and forks add a touch of vintage charm and elegance to any table setting.
