Cutlery set, silver dinner forks, tea spoons, and serving spoons, early 20th century

This is a set of 15 dinner forks, 6 teaspoons, and 2 matching serving spoons that was owned by the Hutter family. The hallmarks all match that of Reed and Barton, a bird then an "R", followed by a lion. Reed and Barton was started in 1824 by Henry Reed and Charles Barton, and still produces silver products today. The other marking on the spoons reads "Sterling" and then "Pat. April 15, 1902" So this set is sterling silver and was produced after 1902. The pattern is called La Parisienne and there is a monogram on the front of each piece's handle which reads "H".
