This sterling silver sardine fork is 5 7/8" long and is quite weighty. The pattern is Frank Smith's Cellini, a bead, scroll and leaf ensemble, with gadrooned shoulders. There is rose detailing on the five tine serving end. The piece offers its own provenance. It is engraved "C" in script, along with the dates "1894" and "1869," thus being an anniversary gift. The condition is excellent. There is no polishing or tine wear, and the form and finish are appealing. It is stamped "Sterling."
