1851 British Antique Sterling Silver Christening Cutlery Set in Foxall and Co Case
SKU: 172826695
It was called a cleaning set, and it seems that it was given as a gift to a child born in a wealthy family at that time.
This is a 2-piece set of a fairly old sterling silver spoon and fork around 1851.
It was made more than 170 years ago, so it has some wear, but the rounded carvings are beautiful.
Comes in original leather case.
We hope this lovely antique silver will add some color to your day!
