ANTIQUE SILVER PLATED ASPARAGUS TONGS A pair of 19th Century Victorian silver plated asparagus tongs in the Georgian style. The inside of the handle bears faux Sterling silver hallmarks including what appears to be a maker's mark: P.S which is probably a generic mark for 'plated steel'. The terminal of the handle has twin scallop shell motifs and an engraved armorial of a swan. Date: Victorian. Condition: Good functional condition, fair to poor cosmetic condition. Recently cleaned but sadly having wear and loss to the silver plate, some tarnish spots and some minor corrosion. Dimensions: Length: 26.530 cm (10.445”) Max width of tongs: 3.935 cm (1.549”) Weight: 197 g Stock number: AC2671
