Beautiful and unusual 800 standard seven piece, table place setting with hand painted porcelain and gilt silver mounted handles with a different full three dimensional cast and chased head or bust on the end of each. The dinner knife measures 10 1/4 inches and has the head of a bearded man. The stainless steel blunt end blade is marked "Nicht Rostend" and the twin figure trademark of J.A. Henckels. All the other pieces have gilt silver working ends - that is silver spoon shaft & bowl, shaft & tines or knife blade. The dinner fork measures 9 3/16 inches long and has the head of a female with her hair pulled up in a high bun. The tablespoon measures 9 3/8 inches long and has the same female head as the fork, though cast slightly larger. The dessert spoon measures 7 5/8 inches long and has a small version of a similar female head with a slightly different hair bun treatment. The teaspoon measures 6 1/8 inches long and has the head of a child. The dessert or fruit fork measures 7 3/8 inches and has the head of the same female as the dessert spoon, though again in a slightly different size casting. The dessert or fruit knife measures 7 7/8 inches and has the head of a beardless young man? with long hair. All except the dinner knife are marked "800" accompanied by a mark of a stylized goblet or chalice, then "Carl Weishaupt". The dinner knife porcelain handle has a U-shaped crack near the ferule end and the teaspoon handle is damaged with losses w it meets the ferule (see photos). The fine line gilt work on the porcelain is generally good but some areas are missing or are deminished by wear. Overall in good condition and a remarkable setting for a special guest or a special dinner from a special German jewelry and specialty retailer.
