HALLMARKED SILVER AND EPNS BONE HANDLED CUTLERY
 
VERY RARE SET!

 

Bone handled fish knife and fork set.
Knives and forks are EPNS and the sleeves are hallmarked silver..
The silver plating is worn in places and some of the handles have begun splitting and are coming loose.
Despite this it is still a great antique set.
Hand engraved, no two pieces exactly alike.
Comes boxed in wooden box, no key.
Note that one of the knives is missing.

  

Please see all images for detailed condition!

Hallmarks:
The crown is the symbol for Sheffield England and the lion indicates 925 silver.
Unfortunately I don't know what the rest mean and would have to guess as to its age.
The F may indicate import into England, (used between 1876 and 1904) but not sure.
RFM may also be a makers mark, but not sure if maker's marks were stamped individually.
If you are an expert on hallmarks, please help via the q&a!
