Antique Englisih Sterling Silver & Mother of Pearl Fruit Knife - Original Case - 1877

19th century
Sold by Puckerings
Description

I only buy these little Victorian fruit knives when they are the best, and this one certainly falls into that category.

The handle has a wonderful tablet of iridescent Mother of Pearl shell on either side, the front with highly decorative engraved decoration surrounding the sterling silver cartouche to the centre with a very ornate monogram, I think C J R.

The front of the solid or sterling silver blade is also beautifully decorated with engraved grape vines and a bunch of grapes. The English silver hallmark is good and clear (incorporating the highly sought-after Queen Victoria's head mark) for Sheffield 1877 together with the makers mark, J.L for John Linegar.

Of course having this original leather bound case or box is an absolute bonus and gold embossed with the Goldsmith Alliance Limited, Cornhill, London.

Absolutely top-notch in superb condition. The box measures 4" long and the knife measures 6" in length when fully opened.

Item 31687

FREE Worldwide Registered Airmail; Insurance Optional.

Declaration

Puckerings has dated this piece to the 1870s.
