Description
A handsome pair of English sterling silver and horn knife rests. The pair evoke scenes of English hunt country dining with their handsome style. Saville row tweeds, field boots, sporting gear and dogs immediately come to mind.
Create your own unique table setting with the pair.
English, sterling silver cap ends are marked with the lion passant mark for .925 silver, town mark for Sheffield, date mark for 1899, and maker's mark for
Harrison Brothers & Howson.
Measurements; 4 1/2" long
Condition Report; Overall very good, a few tiny dents on end caps, no markings found on the ball feet, so they are most likely silver plate. There are 2 small holes on the underside for possibly 2 more feet. The pair still holds a knife well off the table/tablecloth.
