The Service
We are pleased to be offering an excellent Edwardian period silver 12 place settings canteen in Fiddle Pattern. The service provides for four pieces per 12 place settings with knives as an optional extra.
All the spoons and forks were made in London and benefit from having no personalised engravings to them.
Fiddle Pattern
Fiddle Pattern was the dominant flatware pattern of 19th Century Britain. It was by far the most popular pattern from 1810 until 1880. Production was largely discontinued in 1914, as the original dies for hand wrought fiddle pattern were destroyed during the First World War. As the pattern has rarely been made since, the design is distinctively 19th Century and is extremely popular today for people wishing to have antique cutlery.
