Presented in a fitted wooden case lined with deep purple velvet, with brass fittings, a decorative brass cartouche to the lid and a retailer's label for Kemp Bros., Silversmiths, Bristol. A lovely set for serving desserts or fruit, equally appealing as an addition to a collection of antique silver.
