General Auction Including Collectables, Gold & Silver (14% Buyers Commission)
Lot 18:
Description
A single folding pocket knife, commonly identified through market consensus as a fruit knife, dating to the late Victorian or early 20th-century period. The handle features two iridescent mother-of-pearl scales secured by rivets. The bolster, end caps, and blade tang are constructed from 925 silver, as confirmed by the user-provided materials specification. The knife features a single steel blade with a pointed tip. Visible British hallmarks are stamped on the tang, including the standard mark (Lion Passant) confirming sterling quality, along with a partial maker’s mark and an assay date letter, suggesting a Sheffield origin based on comparable examples.
