Makers Marks: HEB FEB (Barker Brothers (Herbert Edward Barker & Frant Ernest Barker)

Dimensions: Just under 6.5 inches long in total, the silver and enamel handles just under 3 inches long

Condition: They are all in very good condition. It looks as if there is slight enamel loss but this is in fact where the hallmarks have been stamped. The box is in good condition inside with just a couple of little small areas of wear to the outside edges

Remarks: A very nice cased set of solid silver & enamel handled butter knives. I have to say that I have come across many sets of silver and enamel spoons but I have not seen any silver and enamel butter knives so these are quite unusual.
