The floral handle work gives the pattern an easy visual identity when sorting through older flatware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pair includes two serving forms rather than place setting pieces. That makes it useful for someone filling gaps in a Silver Belle service or adding serving utensils to a mixed silverplate table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe round bowl spoon is the more specialized form in this pair and was made for serving larger spoonfuls of casserole, stew, and similar dishes.
