🔥🔥 Vintage Cased Set of 6 EPNS Dessert / Soup Spoons

Product Overview:

Up for auction is a beautiful vintage set of six silver-plated spoons, presented in their original period wooden presentation box. These spoons feature an elegant, tapered handle design accented with a delicate beaded border and stylized foliate engraving at the tips, characteristic of mid-20th-century design.

Item Details:

• Quantity: Complete set of 6 spoons.
• Material: EPNS (Electroplated Nickel Silver).
• Hallmarks: Clearly stamped on the reverse with "EPNS" flanked by two six-pointed star symbols (a mark often associated with quality British makers like Atkin Brothers or similar Sheffield-based silversmiths).
• Design: Art Deco-style geometric tapering with ornate scrollwork at the finial.
• Case: Original dark wood presentation box with brass-tone latches, featuring a champagne satin lid lining and a black velvet-flocked base insert.

Condition:

• Spoons: Excellent vintage condition with a high-luster finish. Very minor age-related surface wear/tarnish consistent with gentle use. No heavy plate loss or deep pitting observed.
• Case: The wooden box is structurally sound with a lovely natural grain. The interior lining shows some age-related discolouration/foxing to the satin, which adds to its authentic vintage character. Latches are fully functional.

Approximate Dimensions:

• Case Dimensions: 27.2cm x 20.8cm

Perfect for collectors of vintage flatware or as a sophisticated addition to a formal dinner service.
