This 10"L Silver Olive or Pickle Fork by George Savage is quite fabulous! It features an ornate fork face and a high quality and beautiful swirled handle with ball end. The Fork face features an unusual cross cutout and D Rings on each side. It is marked with a GS on the face of fork and Steel order mark on the long smooth shank of the handle. The swirled portion of the thicker handle is quite obviously tarnished and Silverplate. This is quite an unusual fork to use in your home bar when you need to spear an olive for your shaken Martini!
