Khew, not quite, but often mistaken for. The pattern is Royal Danish, by International Silver. It’s sterling, and the pattern was introduced in 1939, and is made up until now… The set was a generous gift from family several years ago.

Connie C, actually, I think the pan/oil was TOO HOT, and the calamares TOO TINY so they got singed before we could fish them out… :)

Rona Y, this set of silver has the design on the top, hence this type of setting. The previous set had the design on the back, thus it was set “upside down” to highlight the design. We were so crazed I forgot to take photos of the crew party, but besides the lack of dance numbers which we almost always have, it was a festive occasion.

I didn’t notice it then, but the tapas them and the red and yellow table were really rather Iberian, no? :)

What happened to the calamares? Oil/ skillet not hot enough and got overwhelmed for what was thrown into the pan?

re: cutlery, what made you go with American-style for this dinner vs European-style for the bigger dinners?

I’m sorry there were no photos of the crew party this year. They always have so much fun!
