Entirely crafted in silver, the letter opener features a sleek, elongated blade paired with an especially distinctive thick openwork handle. Three graduated floral or quatrefoil-style motifs are formed from smoothly rounded loops of silver, each centered by a polished silver sphere. The dimensional construction gives the handle an almost jewelry-like quality, while the wrapped silver detail where the handle meets the blade provides an attractive finishing touch.

Measures approximately 6 inches long, 1 inch wide, and 0.50 inch high. The blade has a clean, gently tapered profile ending in a fine point and is marked “925,” confirming sterling silver purity. Its polished surface retains light signs of handling and use, lending the piece appealing character without diminishing its elegant appearance. At a substantial 33 grams, the letter opener has a pleasing weight in the hand that reflects the generous use of sterling silver. It remains a functional desk accessory while also being highly decorative—perfect for display on a writing desk, executive office, library table, or alongside a collection of fine silver and gentleman's accessories. The blade is beautifully engraved “Francisco” in flowing script. Light signs of wear and handling, please review the photos for for further condition assessment.
