Vintage mother of pearl handled fruit knives
$25
Made in England in the 1920s, this pair of fruit knives are 19cm long, and were made specifically to cut up whole fruit as a palate cleanser between courses in a large formal meal. They can of course be used as a general knife, or a fruit knife at any time, including desert.
The knives are well pointed for.pieecing fruit skin, and sharp, but certainly not razor sharp. The knife blades are silver plated, as are the ferules between the blade and handles. The handles are solid mother of pearl. They are NOT the plastic fake mother pearl, they are the real, comes from a shell, mother of pearl. Delightfully cold to touch, with that gorgeous pearlescent glitter.
The knives are in perfect condition, with the EPNS silver plate marks from England clearly visible. The price is for both knives as a pair, but I may be willing to seperate them.
