This is an interesting selection, being three period cutlery forks, silver plated, and well marked with the Eagle and Swastika.

The actual emblem is in a distinctive form, being a political style eagle with the swastika device set within what appears to be a cog-wheel – somewhat similar to the DAF emblem. It is possible that this cutlery is of a form that was produced for State owned industries, or a Technical College, for usage in the staff canteen

The forks are the products of three different manufacturers:
1) One example has what appears to be the “Twins” emblem as used by the Henckels company of Solingen;
2) Another example is marked with the name of “Gowe silber”,
3) The third example bears the hallmarking emblem of what appears to be a Bear, but the naming text is not clear on the photo.

These are three interesting items which will have some appeal to the collector of ephemera.
