It is silver intended to be used and enjoyed, not hidden away \u2014 the sort of set that comes into its own at wedding celebrations, Christmas tables, anniversary dinners, and those rarer occasions when a properly laid table matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The original <strong>Carr\u2019s handmade wooden canteen box<\/strong>, in very good condition, completes the service beautifully. It provides smart storage, handsome presentation, and the sense of permanence that belongs with a canteen of this stature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For anyone looking for a <strong>124-piece silver cutlery set<\/strong>, <strong>hallmarked silver canteen UK<\/strong>, <strong>Carr\u2019s of Sheffield silver cutlery<\/strong>, or a <strong>large Grecian pattern silver service<\/strong>, this is a particularly fine example.
