The Hanoverian Rattail pattern first rose to prominence between 1710 and 1730 and has remained one of the most desirable silver flatware designs ever since. Reintroduced in the 1880s, it was the first flatware pattern in the UK to be used for complete canteens. Recognised for its graceful proportions and elegant simplicity, each piece features a distinctive central ridge on the front and the trademark rattail extension on the reverse.
