This is an absolutely beautiful sterling silver flatware set from some time between the 1940's and 70's. It features a brushed/matte/Florentine finish on the handles (see up close photo). This set is in excellent condition (including the stainless portion of the knives). The set includes 12 dinner forks, 24 salad forks, 24 teaspoons, 12 soup spoons, 12 large dinner knives, 12 small knives, 2 large service spoons, 2 large spoon/fork serving sets, one sugar spoon and one butter knife. Sets with 120 pieces are selling for between $7K and $9.5K. This is a great opportunity to get sterling silver flatware below market value. It does not include a silver chest.
