Description
A charming set of twelve antique sterling silver fruit spoons and forks, manufactured by Butler of Sheffield, England. The set includes six spoons and six forks, all featuring elegant, slender handles with a classic design. The spoons are distinguished by their pointed, fluted bowls, while the forks are designed with three tines, two of which are short and one longer, ideal for handling fruit. Some pieces bear the clear "BUTLER SHEFFIELD ENGLAND" mark, indicating their origin and maker. These pieces are in the Edwardian style, likely dating to the early 20th century. The intricate detailing on the handles suggests quality craftsmanship of the period. This set would make a wonderful addition to a collection of antique flatware or as a distinctive serving set.
