DESCRIPTION |
Set of twelve Edwardian silver fish eaters (six knives + six forks) with carved spiral twist mother of pearl handles. The mother of pearl is a very unusual purple/orange colour and has a slightly matt surface, probably from
washing in a dishwasher. This set should not be regularly washed in a dishwasher. |
