Orchid Elegance by Wallace

Wallace introduced their Orchid Elegance pattern in 1956. It is one on many sterling flatware patterns named "Orchid". It is also one the patterns designed for Wallace by William Warren. Other patterns designed by him include Rose Point,  Sir Christopher, his pièce de résistance   Grand Baroque  . For a modern pattern this one is  much more beautiful than most. The orchid on the end is reminisce of the art nouveau patterns of the height of sterling design. The clean lines with the subtle twist of the stem and lines on the different pieces set it apart from the modern very plain pieces of the 50's.
