Modernist Gucci Solid Silver Lion's Paw Letter Opener

1940 - 1960
Sold by Puckerings
Description

I have only ever had one other of these and it was silver over bronze; I was amazed to find this heavy solid silver example fully marked "925" on the underside and signed by the famous fashion house, "Gucci".

Beautifully case with superb detail the handle is in the form of a Lion's paw, the silver mounted with an elegant modernist carved piece of Ebony wood.

Dating to c.1960, it remains in superb condition having been professionally cleaned and polished in our silversmith's workshop, restoring it to it's former glory.

10 1/4" in length x 1 1/4" x 3/4". A hefty piece weighing 205.7 Grams / 6.61 Troy Ounces.
