Antique Silver Spoons

 

 

Item:  Canteen 

Description: Fiddle Pattern

Hallmarks: London 1840-1880 by George Adams

Comments: We can tailor make-up canteens to order by this maker. 

All items are sold in an immaculate polished condition with no engraved inscriptions. Anti-tarnish cutlery rolls are available on request.

George Adams of Chawner & Company made the finest quality Fiddle Pattern in the 19th century. The pieces were generally a standard size and match perfectly to each other. We can supply the exact quantity required, with serving items as optional extras. If you require more of one item and less of another (e.g. dessert forks for use with a starter or no teaspoons) we will be happy to oblige and quote accordingly. 

We advocate new hallmarked silver handled knives or bone handled knives with stainless steel blades from the early 20th century. (N.B. Victorian knives are generally in too poor condition to be practicable.)

As with all the canteens available from our web-site, we are happy to send a sample place setting for approval, on receipt of a fully refundable surety cheque, prior to purchasing this canteen.

Price: £190 per 5-piece place setting (Table/Soup Spoon, Table/Dinner Fork, Luncheon/Dessert Fork, Dessert Spoon and Teaspoon). 

New Silver Handled Knives:- if buying in combination with a canteen we can offer appropriate knives (table knives and dessert knives) at discount prices:-

Early 20th Century Bone Handled Knives:- Table/Dinner -  £5  each; Luncheon/Dessert - £5 each. We offer a choice of best quality knives with round or square handles.

Example price for 12 place settings with bone handled knives (84pieces) :- (£190x12)+(£5x12)+(£5x12) = £2400.

It is extremely unlikely that you will find a canteen of this quality, age and condition elsewhere for less money!!

Ref. No.:  GA/1000
