An elegant set of 6 antique Rodd forks and 6 spoons in very good condition. This set is stamped EPNS A1 and engraved with a grapevine on each piece of cutlery. 

The brothers George and Ernest founded G&E Rodd Pty Ltd in Melbourne in 1919 and by the late 1930s was the leading firm of manufacturing jewellers in Australia.

During the 1930s, it diversified into silver tableware. During World War II, 200 employees were deployed to wartime production. Ernest's son Maxwell took over G&E Rodd in 1948 and it became a public company. Although only 30, Rodd's business ideas and skills saw Rodd Silverware flourish. It became a household name, with its products offered as prizes on Bob Dyer's popular radio and TV game program Pick a Box. In 1961, a set of Rodd Australian gold Jasmine spoons and forks was commissioned as Australia's wedding present to the Duke and Duchess of York.
