The Forks are made in the rare Tear Drop Pattern, also known as fiddle, thread and teardrop. The forks are also very unusual in that they are transitional and do not have the shoulders usually seen on fiddle and thread pattern pieces. The reverse is engraved with a contemporary cipher. Four of the eight forks are shown in the image.
