Created late 19th century.This exceptionally rare letter opener features a couple of massive flowers accompanied by several leaves. They are true to life and project out from the handle and look three dimensional. Attached is a large shaped cutter tapered to a very sharp point. Signed, Smith, sterling. Monogrammed with fancy script.
Measuring: 10 3/8” Long, 2 1/8” Wide. Made of a heavy gauge of silver.
The condition is mint. No damage, no wear and the patina is wonderful. The piece is straight and the point is as when manufactured.
