Coin silver service for 6 -- D.Kinsey & Co., Cincinnati

Beckman spells out the little known history of D. Kinsey & Co. It was formed by the master silversmith David Kinsey and his son Louis A. in 1874. David promptly died. Louis carried on with a partner until 1878. The next year the name was changed to L.A. Kinsey, and it went out of business in 1882. Thus, after many years, the Kinsey name was no longer associated with Cincinnati silver. This set consists of 6 forks, 6 tablespoons, 6 dessert spoons and 12 teaspoons. It weighs 25 T oz. All pieces are in mint condition.
