The 31-piece cutlery set belonged to the family of Count Antal Szapáry (1802-1883) and his wife, Countess Augusta Keglevich de Buzin (1808-1879). It is a high-quality handicraft set, an important element of the incomplete museum collection from the former Szapáry Castle. Especially important since the other furnishings of the Szapáry Castle form the basis of the cultural history collection of the Murska Sobota Prekmurje Museum. The silver cutlery is a high-quality item in the collection of the furnishings collection from the Murska Sobota castle.
