1936 Coronation Silverplate Flatware PatternThe Coronation silverplate flatware pattern was introduced by Community in 1936 to commemorate the crowning of Edward VIII of England.  Due to his abdication, this event never took place.  Coronation has been a highly successful pattern in the U.S. A number of holloware pieces were produced in the early years and are rather scarce today.

The glassware image below is from an old Fostoria Navarre advertisement.  The Navarre pattern glassware, also introduced in 1936, was designed to coordinate with Coronation flatware and holloware.  The motif on the handle of the flatware perfectly matches the central motif on the glass stemware.

Fostoria Navarre is sometimes confused with the Meadow Rose pattern. A comparison of the two patterns may be found here

    I have a complete set of Coronation flatware, in a case. I am trying to raise money for my son’s tuition and am going to sell it. What is the best way to liquidate these items as a set or piece it out ?

    Does anybody have any help to offer? . Just don’t know where to start.

    Thanks

    My daughter has asked for this set – Hampton court, Coronation Community Plate – as her wedding present. She gets married next month (2 October 2009)
    Any ideas on how I could find a set (in a box) for her?
