Wm. Rogers Mfg. Co. Extra Plate Flatware Set in Red Storage Roll
This is a comprehensive flatware set, likely silver-plated, manufactured by Wm. Rogers Mfg. Co. under their "Extra Plate" and "Original Rogers" lines. The set consists of various pieces, including multiple sizes of forks (dinner and salad/dessert forks), spoons (teaspoons, soup spoons, and possibly serving spoons), and knives. Each piece appears to be crafted from a silver-colored metal, likely electroplated nickel silver or a similar alloy, given the "Extra Plate" designation, which typically indicates a heavier plating than standard. The handles of the flatware feature an ornate, possibly floral or scrolled, decorative pattern, indicative of a late 19th to early 20th-century aesthetic, perhaps Victorian or Edwardian revival. The knives have distinct dark handles, likely made of Bakelite, Celluloid, or a similar early plastic, attached to the metal blade and bolster section, which is a common construction for knives of this period. The overall condition appears good, with some visible patina consistent with age and use, but no obvious signs of significant damage like heavy dents, bends, or missing pieces. Some surface scratches might be present from regular handling and cleaning. The set is neatly organized within a vibrant red fabric storage roll or case, with individual slots and elastic bands (red and white striped) to secure each utensil, protecting them from scratching and tarnishing. The storage roll itself shows some signs of use, possibly minor fading or wear on the edges, but remains functional for protective storage. The craftsmanship appears to be of good commercial quality for its time, typical of mass-produced silver-plated goods intended for middle-class homes.
