Collectors of flatware will benefit from knowing about The Silver Fund, a London dealer of vintage Georg Jensen silver. The company offers patterns still in production and 23 that are no longer made. It now has more than 50,000 pieces in like-new condition. Prices are lower than at the Jensen shop on Madison Avenue - in some cases, by 50 percent. The Silver Fund will pay export duty on all flatware shipped. Until Jan. 15, it is offering 15 percent off on all flatware. A five-piece place setting of Acorn, Jensen's most famous pattern (new at $1,040 on Madison Avenue), costs $563. Shipping by Fedex starts at $39 to any place in the United States. By telephone (toll free), (877) 224-5230, or from www.thesilverfund.com.
