Antique Sardine Tongs English Silver Plate Figural Fish

Victorian English Figural Fish Serving Tongs

These antique sardine tongs are a wonderful example of late 19th to early 20th century English tableware, made in EPGS silver plate with beautifully detailed figural fish. Traditionally used for serving sardines and other small fish, the broad decorative ends make this an especially charming piece for a collected table. We love these unusual antique serving pieces for the character and history they bring alongside everyday vintage flatware.
