Description: This is an magnificent set consisting of 175 pieces of Kirk & Son's Repousse sterling silver flatware. This enormous set generally serves 12 place settings, although some of the place-setting pieces have more than 12 pieces and some only have 8 (see list of all pieces below). Repousse is Kirk's most famous design and one of the most highly sought after patterns in American sterling flatware. Where nearly all silverware has one design for all pieces, this intricate floral design is actually at least six different motifs, with different designs for the knives, dinner forks, salad forks, serving fork, soup spoons, and tea spoons, among others. The different floral designs are all raised and very well defined with great detail--a true work of art that can be enjoyed with the entire family at holidays and special occasions. First produced in 1828, Kirk's Repousse pattern is thought to be America's longest-produced sterling flatware pattern.

Celebrate Thanksgiving this year with a beautifully set table of Repousse sterling! Less than half of the pieces are monogrammed with "BHN" initials on the back--because the monogram is on the reverse side, it is not visible when the table is set and can only be seen if one turns the piece over. The silverware chests are for display only and are not included in the sale. Free shipping to the lower 48 state with insurance included. The silverware will be securely packed and well padded.
