Presidential Super Flatware Chest, w/Lift Out Knife Tray
Silverware Storage Chest by American Chest Company
What is .925 Sterling Silver?
The Short Answer:
Sterling silver consists of at least 92.5 percent silver and 7.5% percent of other metals like copper, nickel, or both. The reason for this is Pure Silver or Fine Silver, is very soft and very malleable making it easy to damage or bend. Other metal alloys like copper or nickel are added to the silver to make a more durable piece.
All items sold by Silver Superstore as “Sterling Silver” contain at least 92.5% percent Silver and are stamped with either “.925”, “Sterling Silver”, or both.

What does " w/stamp " mean?
As of April 2022, Fortessa is no longer stamping their logo in their flatware pieces. We do have some stock left of the stamped versions. If you are looking to match your older, stamped, pieces you will want to select the pieces denoted with “w/stamp”.

4.3 out of 5 stars
Chest is very well constructed, beautiful color & will accommodate all the pieces I have. It arrived safely packaged too. I highly recommend this product & Thank You!
I was not happy with the construction of the Presidential Chest. It did not seal because there was no lip that extended up past the lower lining, like Reed and Barton chests and some of the older chest that I own.. So I had to buy some expensive silver cloth to wrap the upper drawer to keep the air out so that it hopefully will not tarnish the silverware.
We are very pleased with our purchase of a chest from American Chest Company....First it arrived in short order and beautifully packaged. The chest itself is a beautiful work of art, crafted from the finest of American Hardwood....the interior of the chest if well laid out for the silverware it will contain in a soft felt like material.....The best thing is that it's American made and very well made....truly a family heirloom for us.....many thanks!!
The Presidential Chest that was purchased is exactly as described. Craftsmanship is outstanding and my sterling dinner set is beautifully arranged and displayed.
