Offering for your consideration is a circa 1960's Oneida / Wm. Rogers silver plate serving utensil set in it's original box. I would image that this was boxed to give as gift for shower, bridal or hostess.

This set consists of the following:

Sugar Spoon - 5 7/8" Pickle Fork - 6" Meat Fork - 8.5" Slotted Vegetable Spoon - 8.25" Flat slotted spoon - 6"

Notice the nice flower pattern on the handles with a twisted area just above that. The original written guarantee is included and states:

"This certifies that the silverware bearing the above trade-mark* is made by skilled craftsmen under the most modern conditions and from carefully selected materials. Every piece is plated with pure silver, most-used forks and spoons are reinforced at the point of the greatest wear. Knife handles are plated with pure silver and fitted with mirror finish, rustless and stainless blades.

Condition: The box has seen better days; especially the lid but could be repaired. The contents look to never have been used. This probably was received as a gift and tucked away. A great find!
