Description
This magnificent Reed and Barton sterling silver flatware collection arrives in a stunning two-tiered mahogany chest lined with tarnish-preventive cloth, housing an extraordinary array of ornate Rococo-style pieces. The elaborate floral and scrollwork handles are deeply chased with breathtaking detail, and individual piece weights have been carefully documented ranging from 0.8 oz for iced tea spoons up to 3.5 oz for the grand serving spoon. This is the kind of set that gets handed down through generations with reverence, the sort of silver that transforms an ordinary Tuesday dinner into a black-tie affair.
