Vintage Mother of Pearl Dessert Cutlery Set (12 Pieces)

This elegant antique dessert cutlery set comprises six forks and six knives, each beautifully finished with mother of pearl handles and silver-plated blades and tines. Perfect for serving desserts, pastries, or afternoon tea, their luminous handles make a unique statement around the coffee or dining table. 

Remarkably, this set appears never to have been used. The pieces retain their original bright finish with only the lightest signs of age, and some still retain their original paper wrapping.

We have two of these sets available, each containing 12 pieces (6 knives and 6 forks).

One set includes: Six dessert forks and six dessert knives. 

Age/Period: Believed to date from the early 20th century, circa 1900–1925.

Materials: Genuine mother of pearl handles with silver-plated blades, tines, and ferrules.

Condition: Exceptional antique condition. The cutlery appears unused, with a beautifully preserved finish throughout. Some pieces still retain their original paper wrapping. There are only the lightest signs of age and storage, entirely consistent with an antique set that has been carefully preserved for over a century.

Please be advised that all items in our Vintage Collection are second-hand pieces, which means that they may have had significant previous use. Marks, stains, bumps, dents, chips, repairs, and cosmetic wear are part of the nature of vintage pieces and are therefore not recognised as defects. Only issues that affect the function of a piece will be considered damage. All cosmetic marks and signs of wear form part of the natural character of vintage objects. If you are not comfortable with used or worn pieces, our standard collection may be more appealing.
