While they are reproductions, the handles commemorate Admiral Lord Nelson's naval victory at Trafalgar during the Napoleonic Wars. They add historic character appropriate to the age of the piece as it was made during that same time period. Commemorative handles like these are fairly uncommon and provide additional gravitas to an already incredible piece.

We hope this piece finds a home with someone who appreciates both its beauty and historic character! See less
