These are incredibly detailed, and really rather lovely. The fork and spoon are Italian in origin, and still respectably silvered. The cake lifter is clearly marked EPNS on the back, but looks rather brassy. Because the style of the lifter is so similar to that of the other two pieces, I have elected to group them together.
The dominant feature on the four-tined fork, is that it is topped with a standard bearing heraldic lion. The spoon, which is a few millimeters shorter bears a beautifully detailed little cherub carrying some sort of animal (long snout and tail – that’s about as much as I can make out – perhaps mythical).
The cake lifter, topped with a crest, is some 28cm long, and like the other pieces carries a massive amount of fine detail on the handle and working surface. The focal point on this piece is an angel and dove motif.
An enchanting and unique little trio, more for display than practical use.
