"Boulenger Magnificent Fish Service 12 Place Settings 24 Pieces Shell Model Silver Metal"
Magnificent set of 12 fish forks and 12 fish knives in silver metal "shell" model. The handles are richly decorated at each end with a delicately stylized shell which is distinguished from the usual classic shell which is found identically among all goldsmiths. At the bottom of the handle, the shell is surrounded by a foliage pattern and a sort of wavelet of the most beautiful effect delicately highlights its roundness. You will also admire the magnificent "mustache" shape of the knife's spatula. Maison Boulenger hallmark on each piece. A lovely, finely crafted model that will make your table unique, refined and truly beautiful! Dimensions: Length of a fork: 19 cm Length of a knife: 20 cm Width of the handle: 2.3 cm (at the widest) Weight of the whole: 1,450 kg The silvering is in good condition, no stitched and of good quality. No deformation. The material is thick. This service is old and has been used but remains in very good condition. Light normal marks and micro-scratches from use. Many other objects to discover in my stand at the antique fairs in which I participate. Follow my gallery to be informed of new developments and to know the dates of the next Shows... Any questions?
