I bought these in the 90's, they have been kept in lint free wraps and have retained an as new condition.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a complete, unused 24-piece foundational curated set from the 1990s. Early heavy hand-cast lead-free pewter pieces completely unused, with the pewter finish the original studio silver shine. Virtually impossible to find today in this mint, pristine condition.
Four complete place settings in a highly desirable "Mixed Design Collection", rather than a single repeating pattern including brutalist designs no longer made. Carrol Boyes intentionally sold these curated "mixed" sets so that every placement at the table features completely distinct, conversational art handles.
This set dates from the early 1990s and features the highly collectible early lowercase "c.boyes" maker’s marks on all of the necks, including the coveted raised-rectangle stamp variant on select pieces.
The set features iconic early designs including the highly sought-after "Soviet" design which is no longer made, "Wave" "Aries" and "Wound Up" among others.
Signature Hallmarks: Each piece is clearly stamped with the early c.boyes hallmark.
Set Composition (24 Pieces Total): 4 x Side Knives 4 x Side Forks 4 x Dinner Knives 4 x Dinner Forks 4 x Dessert Spoons 4 x Dessert Forks
Condition: Excellent, Unused. This set has been carefully stored and never put into service. The stainless steel ends retain their bright, mirror-like shine. These are genuine legacy pewter pieces, they require hand-washing and cannot go in a modern dishwasher.
Each piece will be individually wrapped in parchment paper ahead of shipping in bubblewrap (see photo) with bio-degradable packing beans...and then double boxed. After nearly 30 years rest assured I want to protect them for you too!
NB: Adult signature required with box marked bladed items.
I am thinning out my collections as I downsize so do check my other listings.
