Item: Canteen (60-piece) Description: Fiddle
& Thread Pattern (12 place setting) Hallmark: London 1844-82
by George Adams Weight: 3895 grams (125 troy ounces)
Pieces: 12 off table & dessert forks, table,
dessert and teaspoons. We would suggest new silver handled knives to
complement this service and would be happy to advise and supply the right
ones for you. Matching servers available as optional extras.
Comments: A superb quality Victorian canteen
presented in anti-tarnish cutlery rolls. Each piece has the mark of George
Adams (of the prestigious Chawner & Co.) and lives up to the name in
terms of quality i.e. good heavy pieces throughout. All items are in
excellent condition with full length fork tines and unworn spoon bowls.
Fiddle & Thread Pattern was considered an elite pattern and therefore
this made-up canteen sports an interesting array of engraved crests and
initials, whilst some pieces remain blank.
