Metrosideros

Set of six mother of pearl silver plate dessert or fruit forks, likely dating from the early 20th century. Each fork is crafted with a silver-plated body and tines, complemented by mother-of-pearl handles. Clearly marked EPNS.

Their condition is excellent, consistent with age and use.

The forks are presented in their original, fitted case, which is lined with a dark blue velvet and royal blue silk. Brass hinges and button lock are intact. The box is in good condition inside, but has considerable wear on the exterior, which is black with a gold rim.
