Decorative silver fork

By pas182, 30 October, 2008
Description

My mother gave me several old silver serving fork.  I do not know the history or their value.  The top of the fork has a woman carring two buckets.  The bottom has a countryside scene with a windmill depicted.  There is a small tag attached to the fork that says Holland Silver Town.  One of the forks has the name J. Pluut on it.  Another fork has the word Holland stamped on it.  If anyone has any knowldge of this fork origin or value I would be appreciative

Re: Decorative silver fork

Hi

Came across this on the web. J Pluut as far as I know would have been Jan Pluut in Schoonhoven Holland and was I think my great grandfather. More than that I can't tell you, however I believe he died in about 1918.
