Westmoreland Sterling Carving Set – Marked Sterling
This vintage two-piece carving set by Westmoreland Sterling Co. is a fine example of mid-20th-century American silver craftsmanship. The set includes a large carving knife (13.5") and fork (11"), both marked “Sterling” on the handles and bearing the Westmoreland hallmark. Each handle is crafted from sterling silver (not weighted), while the blades and tines are durable stainless steel, providing both beauty and utility.
Westmoreland, originally a subsidiary of Wallace Silversmiths, was known for producing elegant patterns like “Lady Hilton” and “Milburn Rose” during the 1940s–1950s. The sculptural teardrop-shaped handles and flared guards featured here reflect the streamlined sophistication of that era. While the exact pattern is not specified, the overall design suggests a timeless Art Deco or early modern aesthetic.
Together, the pieces contain approximately 1 troy ounce of sterling silver—estimated at 0.5 ozt per handle. This set would make a distinguished addition to a vintage flatware collection or serve as an eye-catching centerpiece for formal dining.
