Silverware

No commenting tonight. Will catch up with everyone tomorrow.
What a lovely selection of cutlery! I'm trying to make out the writing at the back of the box, but my eyes are letting me down. Can you help, Kathy?

This is a lovely set.

@jamibann Issi I was trying to read it too. It looks like the letters are backwards. Maybe Kathy can help.

I was thinking of doing the same shot!

Nice shot with the silver and contrasting red

@jamibann Thank you Issi. My mother's silver plate flat wear. The label says "1947 Rogers Bros."
@wakelys Thank you Susan. I'm lucky to have it.
@jb030958 Jennie, they're not backwards. I think the font makes it difficult to read. 1947 Rogers Bros. And you're quite welcome to do this shot. Rarely do two people look at the same thing the same way. We're getting to the end of the month and the "s" words are getting fewer.
@kaylynn2150 Thank you Kaylynn.
@ziggy77 Thanks so much Jo.
@thewatersphotos Thank you Gary. It brings back nice memories. I need to get it out and use it more. Perhaps when we quit eating with plastic packed with take out meals.
@grammyn Thanks very much Katy.

I guess it was the font, I could not make heads or tails of it. This is a set from 1947?? Wow that is a treasure!

@jb030958 Yes, I'm sure it is. I've tried to remember the exact year that my parents got married and I know this was wedding gift.

Pretty set- I don't have silver. I always thought I'd inherit my mothers, but apparently my sister sold it without telling my other sister and I. She's never really fessed up to doing it but everything points in that direction. Thankfully, I'd taken the china with me one time (with my father's permission) otherwise, I think she would have sold that too. Don't wait for the plastic to go away- eat with the silver anyhow!

Well looked after and loved I imagine:)

Great capture. Nice polishing job.

when i bought a set of fine china and silver flatware, my sisters and the help were wary of using them for everyday use. i always told them that the fried dried fish would always taste good when eaten on fine china and silver flatware. as ann @olivetreeann said, use the silver, the take-outs will taste better, and you'd feel like a million dollars!

@olivetreeann @fbailey @pyrrhula @summerfield Thank you for the kind words and good ideas.

Such a pretty set, and so well photographed, tack sharp from end to end. I love the red, the lighting, and the shine on the spoons. Fav
