It features ornate, heavy hollow handles crafted from solid .800 silver paired with fire-gilded (gold vermeil) blades and tines manufactured in the famous cutlery hub of Solingen, Germany. The cake server and wide master knife feature stunning, intricate hand-engraved floral Art Nouveau details. Included in this 12-piece Partial Set: 1 x Large Cake/Pie Server (Engraved), 1 x Large Master Dessert Knife (Engraved), 6 x Dessert/Fruit Knives, 4 x Dessert/Fruit Forks.

The set is in GOOD ANTIQUE CONDITION. The gold gilding on the functional blades and tines remains mostly intact with only very minor, tiny spots of wear. The gold gilding on the handles has naturally worn down significantly over time from handling, beautifully exposing the bright .800 silver beneath in a lovely two-tone antique patina. No structural damage, heavy dents, or bends. Stamped "SOLINGEN" on the blades and "800" on the handles. Please review all photos closely for exact condition. See less
