Eton by Campbell-Metcalf

Eton was only made by Campbell-Metcalf from 1892-1898. this pattern should not be confused with Wallace's Eton (1903). This design is one of strong scrolls and curves.


Chipped Beef Fork  (7 inches)




Master Butter Knife  (6  5/8 inches)

Fruit/ Orange Spoon (5 1/4  inches)

Thistle by Blackinton

Once again Thistle is a Blackinton pattern that I cannot find the date when it was introduced. Each piece is decorated with a very ornate and distinctive pattern of the thistle bush, leaves, and flower. It is well carried out and a lovely pattern.




Pierced Bowl Olive Spoon (6 1/8 inches)







Sugar Spoon (5 5/8  inches)



Bon Bon Tongs (3  3/4 inches)

Sweetbrier by Blackinton

I could not find the year Blackinton introduced Sweetbrier. The design of the pattern has several leaves in the terminal and several blossoms and leaves on the top of the stem and then again at the bottom of the stem. It is a beautiful pattern that carries the theme well.

Tomato Server (7 inches)



Flat Handle Master Butter Knife (6 1/2  inches)



Short Handled Pickled Fork (6  inches)

Tea Fork or Breakfast Fork or Junior Fork

The Tea Fork, is the same shape as the Dinner fork just a tad smaller. The designed use was for cakes and scones when tea was served in the afternoon. You will also see them referred to as Breakfast Forks, used for the morning meal. Also, they may be called the Junior Fork. Here it is used for younger people who were too old for Baby forks but perhaps not seen as old enough to handle a full size Dinner Fork. And it would be improper to use a Luncheon fork at dinner, even though it is bit smaller, albeit a  little larger than a Tea fork.

Virginiana by Gorham (6 inches)



Fontainebleau by Gorham (5 7/8 inches)



Nile by Wallace (6 1/8 inches)

Claremont by Blackinton

The pattern Claremont by Blackinton dates back to 1915. The design is simple by elegant with a double line edge that seems to gently fold in at the bottom of the stem and unfold at the top of the terminal with some flourish.

Seafood Fork (5  1/2 inches)



Lettuce Serving Fork (9 1/8  inches)

Prince Eugene by Alvin

Alvin introduced Prince Eugene in 1950. For a manly name, it is a fairly prissy pattern with a floral motif around the terminal with an area available for monogramming. The design at the top of the stem is regal and the design of the stem is very nice. For pattern designed in the 1950's it is a nice heavy detailed one.


Fork (7 7/8 inches)


Lemon Fork (4 1/2 inches)



Tomato Server (8 1/4 inches)



Knife (9 1/2  inches)

Gipsy by Shiebler

Shiebler's Gipsy pattern dates back to 1880. The design is one of leaves and vines that make a garland as they works their way up the stem and around a medallion on the terminal that is suitable for a monogram.


Teaspoon (5 7/8 inches)

Charlemagne by Towle

Towle introduced Charlemagne in 1963. The pattern is an attempt at an Edwardian or Victorian design with the heavy terminal, busy florals, and decorated shoulder. However, it shows its youth. The flowers are too modern, the edges too clean, and the overall pattern trying too hard. For a pattern of the 1960's I will say it is so much better than the thin designs with a waved line up the stem and a rose embellished in it. 



Lemon Fork (5 1/2 inches)




Steak Knife (9 1/8 inches)


Baby Spoon (4 3/8 inches) 



Table Serving Spoon (8 1/2  inches)
