Listed items will not be marked down during the listing duration.Offered here is 4 small pastry forks in Neo-Classical patterns which are similar enough that they can be used together. 1 fork is in 1847 Rogers Persian from 1871; 1 fork is in Simpson Hall & Miller\'s Jewell from 1882, and 2 forks are in Derby\'s Empress from 1883. One of the Empress forks has the retailer\'s name of Garrett & Son. When entertaining, there is always the problem of what to use with the dessert course. Taking everyone\'s salad fork to wash up, and returning them for dessert is difficult to do very gracefully. The pastry fork is designed for eating the dessert, and can be laid on the table with the regular silver. Pastry forks are used for eating just about any kind of baked dessert, not just pastry. The pastry fork has one tine thicker than the rest, which is used for cutting the food into bite sized pieces. This tine also tends to taper to a point, so it can be used as a probe to check for things like cherry pits. Biting a cherry pit is a memorable experience. The 4 pastry forks offered here measure about 6”. These are not pieces of new silver. They show the patina of as much as about 145 years of use. There are the light scratches which constitute normal patina. There is no monogram. Silver is softly lustrous. Three of the forks have small heel dots. The pattern is crisp and clear. These forks have been carefully used and well cared for.I polish all silver before listing on . Please email with any questions before offerding. PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE sale DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY.
