The knives have steel blades their handles are decorated with a repousse palmette at the bottom, a rosette in the middle and flutes at the top. The decoration of the three-pointed forks with steel heads is identical with that of the knives. The narrow, long ladle of the spoons end in a fluted, scrolling finial. All pieces are engraved with G.P. initials and impressed with the town mark of Pest.
