This fish setting for 6 is in the Hampton Court pattern produced by Oneida Community Silversmiths.
Oneida has been associated with high quality cutlery since the mid 1800's, and was formed by the Oneida Community in New York.
Hampton Court was a pattern created in 1936 to celebrate the coronation of King Edward VII and was originally named Coronation. As the new King abdicated, the pattern was renamed Hampton Court within the British Commonwealth but still retained its original name in the USA.
According to a vintage Oneida pamphlet, the design was inspired by the carvings of Grinling Gibbons (1628-1721) who was known as the 'King's Carver' during the reign of Charles II.
The design features motifs of flowers, fruit and reeds on the pierced medallion to the finials and delicate fluting along the length of each handle.
This particular set is in very good condition with no wear through, pitting or corrosion to the high quality silver plate. There are some light surface scratches from use as seen in the photos.
The set comprises 6 fish knives and 6 fish forks.
