Antique English Sterling Silver & Mother of Pearl Letter Opener - 1899

19th century
Sold by Puckerings
Description

A rather unusual antique English letter opener made from sterling silver and Mother of Pearl. The shell on this example is "squared" off rather than the usual rounded sides, nice for a change.

This example also has the most decorative matching ferrule and tip, the tip is where the design registration number can be found for 1887.

The sterling silver blade bears a full English hallmark for Sheffield 1899 together with the makers initials M & W for the famous silversmith Mappin & Webb.

Excellent condition and as useful as beautiful. 7 3/4" in length.
