Description from the seller

Here is a detailed analysis of your cutlery service, based on the brands and details visible in the photos.
Identification of the Manufacturer and Model
Manufacturer: Christofle Paris (France), one of the most prestigious names in the world in the field of jewelry and luxury cutlery.
Model: This is the famous Cluny model. It is a great Christofle classic with a sober and elegant style, characterized by the sinuous profile of the handle.
Analysis of the Marks (Stamping) and Material
From close-up photos of the hallmarks (the stampings on the metal) you can extract fundamental information about the material and the era:
1 Brand "CHRISTOFLE": The name is written in full in uppercase letters.
2 Quality Punch (The Horse/King in chess): The typical modern square Christofle hallmark introduced from 1983 is evident. It contains a horse head in the center (symbol of the stables/factory), flanked by the letters OC (Orfèvrerie Christofle) and the Roman numeral I, which indicates the first quality of silver plating (the thickest and most durable).
3 Chronological Mark/Number: In one of the square marks the digit 100 (or similar numbers such as 84, 90, 100 or 110 depending on the piece) is clearly legible. In Christofle flatware, this number indicates the grams of pure silver used to plate an entire standard set (usually 12 spoons and 12 forks).

In the upper compartment visible in the photos we find:
1 Cake/ice cream slice knife or spatula (large, placed at the top).
1 Serving fork (large, on the left).
12 Knives (on the left bottom).
12 Forks (on the right).
