Blade and tines hallmarked from Birmingham in 1874, the handles Birmingham 1869, quite common for handles to be a differing date, blades, tines and handles all carry the makers mark of John Gilbert.
In immaculate order and judging by their condition these have been seldom used, the case however, lid detached from base and front closure clip is missing.

A quite superb quality set.
