About This Piece
Sublime silver mixed with iridescent Mother of Pearl. An antique set of twelve Mother of Pearl and silver knives for entrée, salad, dessert, or cheese service. The impressive knives bear acanthus leaves with bay leaf swags on the large silver ferrules — a set that will incorporate beautifully with other flatware and dinner settings.
A practical note: Mother of Pearl cutlery offered for sale often has older blades with oxidation. The blades on this set have been replaced, saving the buyer the expense and time of having them restored.
