Description from the seller
Elegant service consisting of three large serving utensils in 800/1000 silver, of Italian manufacture, characterized by a rich decorative treatment in a classical taste.
The set includes a large serving spoon, a serving fork, and a slotted spoon/serving scoop. The three elements feature a refined coordinated ornament: handles with an oval medallion, an embossed ornamental frame, and vegetal and scroll motifs, also echoed in the upper part of the handles.
The utensils bear the hallmark of the 800 fineness and the identifying mark “1 BO,” relating to the silver production of the Bologna province, manufacturer: Mantel e Clementi. Also present is the maker’s mark M–[symbol]–C.
Total weight: about 410 g
Length: about 27 cm each
Material: silver 800/1000
Hallmark: 1 BO
Number of pieces: 3
Origin: Italy
Manufacturer: Mantel e Clementi
The set is presented in generally good condition for its age and use. There are surface scratches, slight tarnish, and normal signs of use, particularly visible on the broad part of the scoop, as documented in detail in the photographs. The signs of time have not been removed by aggressive polishing.
An interesting and important 800 silver serving set, with substantial total weight and elegant classical decoration, suitable for use or for a collection of Italian silver.
The photographs are an integral part of the description and show the condition, decorations, and features of the objects.
