Condition
Overall excellent original condition. This service presents with evidence of very gentle use including a few small and minor surface scratches. This set is distinguished by the rare inclusion of the fish forks and number of serving pieces that are not included in most offerings of the flatware pattern. An artistic and sculptural full service for twelve.
