Circa 1875 British antique white mother-of-pearl handle dessert cutlery, 6 pairs, in wooden box
SKU: 202411234870
We would like to introduce you to an antique British cutlery set.
This cutlery set with white mother-of-pearl handles is believed to date to around 1875.
There is no marking so the maker is unknown.
This is a set of six pairs of slightly smaller dessert cutlery.
The mother-of-pearl handle is shaped with a beautiful pattern.
The blade is also intricately decorated, and there are traces of some of the plating on the knife blade having been repaired with resin where it had peeled off.
It fits perfectly in a wooden case.
We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
