Wingfield Rowbotham & Co Cutlery Set



I came across this cutlery set at Vinnies in Dandenong a fortnight ago, and for only $9 I couldn't resist! It's a bone handled and silver plated nickel cutlery set. The knives have beautiful floral engraving on them, and they're in immaculate condition! I did a bit of a google search of the markings on the knives (not pictured) and it turns out they're electro plated nickle silver... pretty snazzy!

Jac, do you do ANY work!??? Great find though....
In your post about Savers etc, I was reading through it and KNEW it had to be by you because who else would go to so many op shops in one day!? I got to the bottom and saw "Jac" and I thought, I knew it!!!

Hehehe... I actually do lots of work, I just have a bit of time off at the moment. I only do the several op shops in one day thing every now and then.. this time it was to show my sister and her boyfriend around. :)

Oh Jac, you struck gold here - this knife set is superb! $9..I bet if you put it on eBay you could add a nought to that for resale!
