Community Coronation silverplate flatware, 62 pieces, service for 12, in chest
Service de couverts complet pour douze personnes, motif « Coronation » de Community — identifié par la fiche d'inventaire dactylographiée d'origine qui accompagne le coffret. Présentation en coffret de bois doublé de velours bordeaux, chaque pièce dans sa fente. Motif floral en relief sur des manches à cannelures, style de la fin des années 1930. Argenture (silverplate) et non argent massif — c'est un service de table, pas un lingot.
A complete flatware service for twelve, Community's « Coronation » pattern — identified by the original typed inventory card that comes with the chest. Presented in a wooden chest lined with burgundy velvet, every piece in its slot. Raised floral motif on fluted handles, late 1930s in style. 62 pieces per the original card: 12 knives, 12 forks, 12 dessert forks, 12 teaspoons, 12 soup spoons, 1 sugar spoon, 1 butter knife. Complete service for 12, nothing mismatched. Disclosed, plainly: this is silverplate on metal, not sterling — a table service, not bullion. Bright overall, with some usage scratches in the bowls of the spoons, shown in the photos. Sold as one set, chest and inventory card included.
