Moscow 1882, length 6 3/8 inches, fine condition, monogrammed. A pleasant change to see some Russian forks rather than the ubiquitous teaspoons, we think.
overstruck by John & Tunis Denise, New York circa 1795, oval drop with short back midrib, some light wear and minor scratches in bowls (please see third photo) but fine overall condition, length 8 3/4 inches. The Messr's Denise struck their mark at 180 degrees to Schanck's, but both are clearly visible although this may require that that you stand on your head...
length 4 1/2 inches, some light scratches but very good overall condition, monogrammed "Norma." Sad to say that we've currently not got a gem encrusted jewelry box by this same maker, but then again perhaps your collecting budget has three figures, not five...
length 3 3/4 inches, excellent condition, no monogram. Not antique but perhaps from the 1920's (see photo number two for mark) with better detail, die-depth and stronger oxidation than you'd find in a brand new one.
some would call it a cheese knife, others a tomato server, without a Knowles catalog to consult we'll never know for sure and Yours Truly has never seen one. Length 6 7/8 inches, no monogram, excellent condition.
Banks and Biddle Company, length 8 1/4 inches, excellent condition, monogrammed "C" (script, obverse). A classic example of Philadelphia style bright cut engraving. Marked with trademark only, but our guess is that it's sterling rather than coin silver.
lengths 7 9/16, 6 7/8 inches; excellent condition, monogrammed "Strollers" and "F" respectively. A highly detailed and well modelled pattern-- we've long suspected that the grapes are applied rather than die-struck-- (see second photo) from our favorite flatware maker.
