Antique Directoire LOUIS XVI Carving Fork, sterling handle with bolster, guard, no monogram

Pattern on the silver handle is classic Louis XVI, Directoire. 

Fork and guard are steel.

Length: 10 3/4"  [27.5] cm
Weight: 133 grm, includes all parts.

Condition: Good vintage. Handle silver has some small indents on both sides consistent with wear. No large dings, nicks or bents. The fork tines have scratches at the very top on the back consistent with having been used. Guard mechanism is firm and secure. No rust or corrosion.

There is a small stamp on one side of the handle, see two images. It is a of a woman in profile. I believe it is the Minerva stamp, for French silver.
