You are buying ONE sterling silver 6 piece place setting made by International Silver in their very desirable Richelieu Pattern. The pattern was first introduced in 1935 and was discontinued in 1996. These piece have only had one owner and was kept inside it's original tarnish protecting silver chest. I think the owner put the set in the chest and never used it. There may be a minor bit of tarnishing, but overall the box kept the pieces in remarkably clean condition. Each place setting contains:
1 - 7-1/8 inch long Dinner Fork
1 - 6-7/8 inch long Dessert Fork
1 - 6 inch long Teaspoon
1 - 6-3/8 inch long round bowl soup spoon
1 - 5-7/8 inch long solid flat handle individual butter knife
1 - 9-1/8 inch long Dinner knives
I also have the following serving pieces, including 2 Gravy ladles, 3 Serving spoons, a Sugar spoon, a Pie server, a 2 piece salad set (slotted spoon & fork), and a pickle fork, all of which I am selling separately so please look at my other listings.
I have included one photo of the 6 piece set, and separate photos of all 12 of the individual pieces I have so you can see the condition is consistent throughout. Please review the photos for a complete description.
Silver case is included - if you do not want the case, the shipping cost may be slightly less.
