Listing description

Product description

Lot: six mixed small cutlery pieces marked 800/900 (seller/warehouse indicates 800/900 silver). This rustic assortment includes two large serving spoons, smaller teaspoons and two forks (one with a wooden handle). The strongest visible features are the clear hallmarks on several handles (not legible in photos), heavy surface tarnish, widespread plating loss and visible surface corrosion and pitting across most pieces.

Practical for a restorer, silverware reseller, prop house or decorative project — these pieces suit someone who wants vintage character, to restore or to use as display/props rather than ready-to-table service. The lot is an affordable way to acquire marked old silver cutlery for repair, pattern research or creative reuse in craft projects.

  • Included: 6 individual pieces (assorted forks and spoons; one fork with wooden handle) as shown in photos.
  • Condition: heavily tarnished with plating loss, dark corrosion spots and pitting; some surface wear and rim loss visible.
  • Measurements: assorted sizes; six pieces total — see photos for scale.
  • Working status: not applicable (cutlery).
  • Known faults: heavy tarnish, plating/pattern loss, surface corrosion/pitting; wooden-handled fork has corrosion at the ferrule; hallmarks present but not legible in images.
