Description from the seller
Elegant Service of 12 Coffee/Sweet Teaspoons in 800 Silver
Valuable and elegant complete set of 12 coffee or dessert spoons in 800 title silver, Italian manufacture, splendidly preserved in its original vintage case. The set features a classic refined design with a sober thread pattern decor on the handles, perfect to enrich a formal table or as a precious collectible piece.
Technical Features and Details
• Material: Solid Silver 800/1000 Title (Continental Silver).
• Composition: The set includes 12 pieces (coordinated spoons).
• Total net weight of cutlery: 108 grams (verified on a precision scale, as shown in the attached image).
• Hallmarks / Brands:
• Hallmark 800 enclosed in an oval cartouche certifying authenticity and alloy purity (80% pure silver).
• Beside it is the hallmark identifying the Italian silversmith within the classic hexagonal lozenge with cut sides.
• Era / Dating: 20th century (approximate period 1944–1968, given the hallmark type without the fasces and prior to the introduction of the Republic star).
• Case: Original vintage rigid box with a dark blue exterior and inner white/ivory satin-lined fabric shaped to house each piece individually. The inner bottom bears the dealer's original gold label.
Condition
The service is presented in excellent vintage condition. The silver shows a light, natural patina of time (surface oxidation, especially on the back of the handle as visible in the photo), an indicator of authenticity, easily polishable with specific products if you wish to restore the maximum original shine. No structural deformations or significant defects are evident. The outer case is intact and fully functional.
