STERLING handles with TEAKWOOD BOWL AND TINES, made by a well known pretigious company with gorgeous designs and patterns. 2. These pieces are marked with an A and STERLING . I believe it is ALVIN STERLING but I am not familiar with this pattern. These are from an estate, so I do not know the age but believe the pattern is very old, 1900's. However, these actual pieces are from a later date. Vintage more than older. This set is gorgeous and in very good vintage condition. The pattern is in Sterling silver Repousse with Rose or Orange Blossoms and Shells with scroll patterns on the side and Acanthus style ferns on the top portion. This pattern is very close to Chateau Rose or a similar pattern. It is STUNNING!!! The Teakwood is in a deep reddish brownish shade, beautiful color. It appears to have been used quite infrequently. Nice and sturdy. The spoon is 10 1/2 inches in length while the fork is 10 3/4 inches in length. Normal for the fork to be slightly longer to grab the salad into the spoon.
