Description

* * * * REAL FRENCH ANTIQUE DINNER FORKS .950 SILVER * * * * For sale is an antique set of 6 French solid .950 sterling silver dinner forks made in the early 19th Century during the period 1833 to1838. These forks are French first standard .950 sterling silver. The forks are done in the classic Fiddle Thread pattern. Due to their age and wear from past use their nominal dimensions are 8 " long (I measured each one: average max length is 7-7/8 " long and outside tines average slightly less 7-3/4" long); combined total weight 412 grams of .950 sterling silver. We can narrow the date these forks were made by the stamped punches in use in France from 1819 to 1838. One mark is for the1st silver standard 0.950; a second mark is the large silver assay mark, both for Paris. The third mark in the middle is the maker's mark for J.B. Landry, Paris. Jean-Baptiste-Denis-Landry (a silver flatware specialist) had this mark (J B LANDRY + a man's foot) registered in 1833. This set of 6 forks are in very good overall condition with wear to the tines commensurate for their age (see measurement details above). The reverse handles are monogrammed. (CF).
