Description
A substantial set of six large table or dinner forks in the sought after Fiddle & Thread pattern. These superior examples are double struck (pattern front and back) and made in the Victorian period by the esteemed George W Adams. With so much antique silver flatware melted for scrap, a surviving set of six in this prestigious pattern is quite a find. The gauge of the silver is superb and they would grace any modern dinner table, almost 180 years after they were made.
