Material and workmanship

The dessert fork is made of 925 sterling silver and is fully gold-plated—tines and handle consistently show the warm gold tone. At the fork head is a small shield-shaped field, in which the Pisces symbol is set, outlined in gold on a light background. At the opposite end of the handle is an oval niello panel with a floral ornament: a dark metal alloy that is melted into fine depressions and then permanently bonded to the silver. This technique is called niello—also popularly known as "ink in silver"—and has been used for about 3000 years. It is not a lacquer and not a print, but a chemical-physical bond with the silver that remains stable even with daily use. Over time and with regular polishing, the contrast between the dark niello and the light gold even deepens. The hallmark on the handle confirms the silver content. As a curated piece from our selection of Russian silversmithing, this dessert fork impresses with a craftsmanship that you can feel in your hand.

Use and occasions

This dessert fork is intended for the festive table—for dessert after a special meal, on holidays, or as an addition to existing sterling silver flatware. As a gift, it is particularly suitable for people born between February 20th and March 19th: a present that goes beyond the usual because it incorporates one's own zodiac sign. This piece also fits an anniversary, the wedding of a Pisces couple, or as a thoughtfully chosen gesture for someone with a sense of sensitivity, imagination, and deep emotional perception. Anyone who wants to complement an existing collection of zodiac flatware will find in this fork a piece that pairs well with other sterling silver from our selection.

Engraving and SilberVerse Card

The Pisces symbol and the niello ornament are permanently affixed at the factory and are not part of a subsequent engraving. For a personal dedication—such as names or dates—please contact us: we will coordinate possible surfaces and implementation individually with the manufacturer. Regardless, upon request, we will include a personal SilberVerse card in photo format 15 × 10 cm (landscape format)—individually designed, suitable for the occasion, and currently free of charge. Each card is unique and also suitable as a standalone addition without any engraving.

Care

The gold-plated surface and the niello ornament are best cared for with a soft, dry cloth. After use, rinse by hand and rub dry carefully—this will preserve the contrast between gold and the dark niello for years. Silver polish should not be used on the niello panel, as it can attack the melted alloy; on the other gold-plated surfaces, a mild polishing cloth is sufficient. Stored dry and ready for use, this dessert fork remains a reliable part of your sterling silver flatware.
