The pieces are Danish and in the popular pattern called Capri. The set is for 6 people and comprises 6 hollow handle dinner knives, 6 dinner forks, 6 entree/bread and butter forks, 6 dessert spoons, 6 teaspoons, large meat serving fork, a large serving spoon, a ladle and a cake server. There are 34 pieces including as mentioned 6 rare knives. All the pieces have fine scratches and scuff marks from use and storage.
Some of the pieces have small areas to the sides at the base of the serving sections where it appears the plating has missed being applied. I would still describe them in very good condition as these spots are very minor and only noticed under fine scrutiny.
The back of the fork tines shown some more scratches with some very light wear through of the plating to the very tips of a few. There is no wear through of the plating to other spots and no corrosion of flaking of the silver. The plating is bright and shiny. The set weighs over 1.5 kilos.A handy guide is 25mm or 2.5cm is a little less than 1 inch, so 100mm or 10cm is just less than 4 inches.
