Founded by Robert Wallace in the 1830s, the Wallace Silver Company first introduced the Grande Baroque pattern in 1941. The pattern became wildly successful, helping to establish Wallace as an even more prominent name in the silver industry. The pattern can still be purchased today through fine retailers, with replacement costs for a comparable 66-piece set retailing for upwards of $16,000.
Marked “STERLING” and “Wallace,” with the serving utensils and knives featuring stainless steel blades.
