Old Reed & Barton "Six Fleurs" Sterling Cocktail Fork

An original example of this standout Art Nouveau pattern dating from 1901, this piece is stamped in fine lettering with the Reed & Barton emblem, the words "Sterling" and "Pat. App'l For," this phrase particularly indicative of its age. The item is a 5 3/4" long, approximately .8 T. oz., seafood or oyster cocktail fork. It is in immaculate condition and without a monogram or removal.
