This lot comprises an extensive collection of mixed household flatware and various kitchen utensils. The group includes a variety of dinner, dessert, and pastry forks, as well as tablespoons, teaspoons, and serving spoons. Also present are knives with both metal and wooden handles. The items are constructed from several materials, including stainless steel and silver-plated metal. Included in the drawer is a white cardboard box for the Meurice Fleur de Lys collection, although the drawer contains a diverse array of unrelated patterns and makers. Specific kitchen sundries include a spherical metal tea infuser, a pair of rusted metal tongs or nutcrackers, and a small decorative souvenir spoon with a yellow figure on the terminal. While stamps and hallmarks are visible on the reverse of several pieces and on knife blades, they are not clearly legible from the provided images.
