Vintage Taille by Rosenthal 18/8 Germany, large stainless serving fork - Nice! - from a New England estate

Serving fork has a spoon bowl shape - the shape is like a large "spork."
Solid with a glossy finish - hard to find Rosenthal 18/8 Germany - stainless steel in the Taille pattern.
Some signs of use and wear and storage, a little scratching on back of bowl - see photos taken in several different lights and settings, hard to see any scratches because the finish is a shiny gloss - overall no pitting or dents or serious damage - in great condition!
8 5/8nches long, 1 5/8 inches across the widest part of "bowl"


NOTE - if you purchase multiple items from this store we will refund any savings in shipping fees.

A note about our authentication and correctness of descriptions:
We have exercised reasonable effort to describe each item we sell, correctly and accurately. Unless otherwise noted there is no official authentication of our items, authentication comes with a fee, and will mean additional costs. Most of our items that are certified authentic are done so via consignment sales, usually specialized auction companies. We take as many photos as we can to show details of our items, and do our best to describe any flaws.
We know many of our items from estate clearances are "loved," have been used, and will show signs of wear and or storage.

History:
We are a woman owned business run by several busy women.
We have artists among us. In addition to our estate sales we will be adding artists' work and supplies for crafting.


Estate sales are not the same now with this pandemic, so we are trying this online platform for antiques and vintage items.
Artists and craftswomen also don't have the same venue for selling- thus we will sell some of our friends and co-workers items here.

Estate sales are recycling or upcycling.
It amazes us how much some who clear estates, throw away. That means many missed opportunities, estate sales, to us, is the ultimate form of recycling or upcycling. There's always someone who will match with an item, it's just a matter of making the effort to find the right person and make that match, .

We appreciate your interest and business. There are hundreds of items waiting to be posted from small to large, from antique to vintage, from funky to elegantWe recycle and reuse clean packing materials.

We are a woman owned women run business selling estate treasures and just a sample of some of the artisan work of our own staff.

A personal note about selling on Etsy from our store owner, we put our own store at risk by posting this message, but we have not received answers from Etsy about these concerns:
We are disappointed to see so many items for sale on Etsy that do not comply with Etsy policies. We take Etsy rules and policies seriously and comply them. When items we have to sell do not qualify per Etsy rules and policies, we sell them on other online platforms and in person, we do not and will not violate Etsy policies. Items that are not handmade should not be listed as handmade. Items that are not vintage should not listed as vintage. Examples we see often are the planters we purchase from floral suppliers to use with Sola arrangements, sold here on Etsy by other sellers as handmade or vintage planters. This is unfair to those who make similar items by hand. It is impossible for artists to compete with factory-made.
Please, if you see something listed as handmade or vintage, that you suspect is imported and or factory made, ask the seller to clarify, and report the item to Etsy.
Help us keep Etsy honest and true to it's advertising.
