Offered is a scarce example of the work of Enoch Moulton, a member of the famous Newburyport, MA family of silversmiths, but one who forged his own way in Portland, ME during his short (ca. 1780-1815) life.

Faber & Sons, Phila., Bright Cut Sterling Silver Beef or Lettuce Fork
Silver : Sterling : Flatware

Old Friends  
5517f   $55.00


click for details
This 8 1/4" long, 1.35 T. oz., solid silver serving fork has two potential uses.

Slender and long, with a three tine serving end, the dimensions and overall form suggest a lettuce fork.

The tine configuration, however, points to a beef fork, and this could be a long-handled version of that piece.

Whatever the precise function, it is an exceptionally well-crafted item.

Philadelphia in origin, it is marked "W. Faber & Sons" along with "Sterling," and dates circa 1880.

It has a... Click for details
