Description
A most unusual silver handled Victorian letter opener, in the shape of a scimitar. The gorgeous silver handle is fully hallmarked and pistol grip in shape. It is embossed in naturalistic bark and wood effect and has an engraved, openwork ferrule. The blade is carved bone and has a gentle curve, completing the effect. A wonderful and practical piece and a great gift idea.
