A beautiful Edwardian silver-plated fruit and nut serving set, offered in its original presentation case. This exceptional ensemble includes two intricately engraved nutcrackers, a pair of grape scissors, and four fruit spoons—all bearing the A&D (Allen & Darwin) maker’s mark and crafted to a high standard. The interior of the case is lined with sumptuous royal blue silk, extending over the hinges for a seamless finish, while the custom-made recesses are clad in matching velvet to cradle each piece securely. In excellent condition, the set shows only minor signs of age to the box and remains a wonderfully decorative addition—ideal for adding a touch of Edwardian refinement to any table setting.
