Wellington by ALVIN 1897 Sterling Silver SARDINE FORK 7 tines Monogram 4 1/8. This rare ALVIN sardine fork in wellington pattern is 4 1/8 long. What i believe is a vertical. H' monogram in Fancy cursive script, adorns the handle.
American sardine forks usually have 5 to 9 tines; this one has 7. Above the tines are 4 attractive piercings in wellington fashion. On the back it is marked for Alvin, patent and sterling. Could use some polish but is in superb condition otherwise.
