These very rare Forks are modelled in the Queens Pattern and each is double struck, the pattern being on the front and the back. The side tine is beautifully shaped and the stem is engraved with a contemporary initial in Gothic script. Each fork is of an outstanding weight and is very well marked. This design of fork is uncommon, as dessert forks were generally used for cake.
