About the Item
A rare early 19th century silver and Horn Mounted Roasting Fork.

The two-pronged steel fork is long, slender and very sharp. This implement is intended for hand roasting a piece of meat over a campfire. Its length giving protection from the heat. An expensive and luxurious tool for a gentleman hunter traveller. This item has a maker’s mark stamped on the fork and is in good condition with a few minor age-related small dents to the silver pommel cap.
