An attractive matching pair of gold-tone knives featuring raised floral and scrolling decoration against dark recessed backgrounds. The gently flared handles complement slender, pointed blades, each sharpened along on edge with decorative notching along the opposite edge.
The decorative design has a Victorian-style character. The knives are part of a large collection of generational silver, possible dating from the 1890"s. Date not confirmed.
Each knife measures 6 1/2 inches long and weighs 47 grams.
The maker, country of origin, manufacturing date, and original intended use are unconfirmed. No maker's nor purity marks have been found. Metal composition has not been tested, and the knives are offered gold-tone metal without a claim of solid silver or silver plate.
