The blades and tines are undecorated, for a look that is elegant in its simplicity! The wood chest is striking, lines in a deep plum velvet, with a burst of color in a fushia satin fan design! A lovely example of craftsmanship to show off the flatware, neatly nestled in individual double-stacked slots for each piece! This set is in excellent overall condition, well preserved over the years.
No plate loss or heel wear except for one tiny spot of plate thinning on the blade of one knife, by the maker's mark. The wonderful mother of pearl handles are free of any damage or discoloration.
