Full description

A three-pronged vintage silver-plated bread fork with original engraved decoration on both sides, and a yellow celluloid 'faux bone' handle. Below the tines I've hand stamped it 'BREAD' with vintage stamping dies. A perfect small gift for anyone who loves quirky old stuff, it's just right for spearing bread rolls from a basket and can be used for serving sliced meats or chunky sausages too. Do be careful though, the teeth are quite sharp, I'd recommend using this as a serving implement only and NOT as a weapon no matter how irritating your dinner guests may be. Also keep out of reach of unsupervised children, just in case.

You will receive the fork shown in the photos. It is about 18.5cm long, and it's vintage (or quite possibly antique) and pre-loved so it does have some wear to its original silver plating, and as already noted the tips of the tines are quite sharp because of polishing.

The lettering is coloured with a waterbased acrylic ink. Hand washing is recommended, the handle isn't dishwasher-proof and the fork shouldn't be left soaking in water either as this loosens the adhesive with which the metal part is bonded to the handle.

Designed by Lynn Davy in Dorset
