On the back they are engraved with “Albescent Silver”. They are from England, beyond that I know nothing about them. They are not sterling silver. They are just spoons. If you wish to melt these down and use them for other things please do not buy them! They are what they are. Fun for a tea party or if you are someone who likes older things that are not mass produced. They are just an old set of spoons. One has some damage. Please see all photos. 37
