NEW Reed and Barton Francis 1 Sterling Silverware 7.25 Fork
NEW Reed and Barton Francis 1 Sterling Silverware 7.25 Fork. I have a small set of this in “New old Stock” condition. They have never been out of the sleeve, never used, this pattern was discontinued in 2019 so they have been in a drawer for awhile and will be some wear to plastic sleeves but the pieces inside are absolutely new and unused, not machine polished with a worn down pattern like some of the big replacement patterns offer but new and not available anywhere at any price in this condition. I’m still pricing them at way less than they cost new and about what the big companies charge for a refinished piece that typically has lost the original crispness of the pattern. An American Classic, Francis 1st by Reed & Barton continues to be as popular today as it was when it was introduced in 1907. The grandeur of this unique sterling silver pattern, designed by Ernest Meyers, is enhanced by its fifteen different fruit-and-flower clusters. Each handle bears one of these exquisitely detailed vignettes. After 112 years this pattern was retired in 2019.
