Here is a silver plate serving fork made by the Niagara Falls Co. It is very pretty, with wild roses at the end of the handle, at the base of the tines, and leaves twining up the handle. It is marked "1877 Niagara Falls Co", a stylized "e"?, and an "8" or infinity symbol. Also "Pat. 04". It is in very good condition, with a patina of course. It measures 8-1/4" x 1-1/2", and weighs approximately 61g.
