Nine out of ten alleged Lily lettuce forks that come on the market are recast, so it's a pleasure to see an old, original example.

Is this the cheapest example on the entire Internet? No, it is not!! There's a sad, tired looking one on ebay which you can pick up for a bit less, but doesn't your collection deserve the best??
$45.00
Unlike many of the other examples which one may find on this world-wide web, this is original, not "made up" out of a teaspoon.
$75.00
In many ways, this is an exemplary item, as it has had scant use, little pattern wear and is pleasantly heavy in the hand. Sadly, as may be seen in our second photo, there has been an erasure from the reverse. However, the spoon is still guaranteed to hold your soup or dessert!
A nearly identical though slightly smaller example is pictured in Chickering, p. 157; plate 160.

For those of you who favor comparison shopping, compare @349.95 with those folks who Replace your stuff, or 495.00 on Ebay and Etsy!

Before you get all steamed up about what an incredible bargain these are (those folks who Replace your stuff want 199.95 each, on ebay), dear reader, allow me to draw your attention to the blades, which are steel and have some pitting (we've shown this in unflinching detail; see second enlargement).
