spatulate-shaped blade; handle decorated with long-stemmed lilies with two flowers and two buds and EKG monogram

Dinner knife, from a twelve-piece place setting, 1912

In addition to the coffee and tea service shown here, the extensive silver service for Rockledge included an extensive set of flatware for formal dining. The Gorham Manufacturing Company produced twelve place settings consisting of twelve pieces each--from dinner knife to coffee spoon. These also featured the motifs for Rockledge: the King monogram, the flattened arch (here seen on the terminus of each piece), and the tiger lily.
