76-piece Romanze Pattern Canteen of Silver Cutlery,
Late 1960's by Rosenthal
The Service
We are pleased to be offering a funky, late 1960's designer silver 8 place settings canteen in Romanze Pattern. The service provides for eight pieces per 8 place settings with addition tea and coffee spoons.
This fabulous pattern was created by the Danish designer Bjorn Wiinblad for Rosenthal the German porcelain manufacturers as part of their Romanze series. More can be found about Bjorn Wiinblad at this link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bj%C3%B8rn_Wiinblad
The cutlery service comprises 76 pieces each of which bears the Rosenthal name, the German 925 silver guarantee mark and a London import hallmark (this was compulsory to allow the service to be sold in the UK).
All the pieces have a striking design of graduated ovals to the front terminal (both sides of the knife handles) and a lovely additional touch is the gilt (gold plated) ovals on the tea and coffee spoons. At over 15cm long, the teaspoons are a good size and could be used for small portion dessert such as mousse, creme brulee etc. The knives are fitted with good quality stainless steel blades.
A fabulous set of table cutlery.
