Silver fish slice made by silversmith Jan George Grebe Jr from Rotterdam. He was active from 1820 to 1862.

The fish slice is beautifully designed with a pierced bowl. The handle is made of wood.

The slice is hallmarked with the second fineness mark, maker's mark JG +G, year letter F for 1840, and the Minerva head D for Rotterdam.

During his active period, Jean George Grebe Junior made silver tableware and serving pieces such as inkstands, dinnerware sets, tobacco boxes, bowls, and serving spoons. He made a silver book cover for the Steigerse Kerk in Rotterdam, which is in the collection of Museum Rotterdam.

He participated in the 1851 Great Exhibition in London and the 1853-1854 Exhibition of the Industry of All Nations in New York. At the latter, he won a silver medal for his "masterfully crafted silver cup." He exhibited this cup the following year (1855) at the Exposition Universelle in Paris.

The slice is in good condition.

Weight: 142 grams. Length: 35.5 cm.
