A good set of 6 small antique dessert or butter knives with sterling silver handles. They are good quality pieces with pretty detail on the end of the handles and each one is fully hallmarked for Thomas Bradbury & Sons, Sheffield, 1923.
They are in good condition for their age although they are showing some signs of wear and use. One handle in particular has a few dents and dinks on and there is some wear around the edges of the blades (see photos). However there are no major damages and they display well as a set. They have been gently cleaned and polished and are ready for use.
The set comes in its original fitted box with a velvet and silk interior. The box is in good condition with some minor staining and wear to the silk lid and some light scuffs and marks around the edges but nothing detrimental.
Approximate Measurements:
Length of Knife : 7" / 18cm
Box : 8 1/2" / 22cm x 6 1/2" / 16cm
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
