Julius Lemor - Cutlery set (2) - Steel, Silverplated

Offered is an authentic pair of antique table knives with solid 800 silver handles, produced by the renowned silversmith Julius Lemor in Breslau. The knives date to the early 20th century (circa 1900–1925) and are stylistically associated with the Jugendstil (Art Nouveau) period. The blades bear the original marking “Julius Lemor – Breslau – Nicht rostend”, indicating the period-correct use of stainless steel blades combined with silver handles. The “800” silver hallmark is clearly visible, confirming the silver content of the handles. The elegant, restrained design and balanced proportions are characteristic of high-quality German table silver from this era. The knives form a matching pair, making them well suited for collectors of German and Silesian silverware, Jugendstil objects, or as a refined addition to an existing silver cutlery set. • Quantity: 2 knives (matching pair) Material: • Handles: 800 silver (hallmarked) • Blades: stainless steel • Total weight: approx. 190 g • Weight per knife: approx. 95 g • Maker: Julius Lemor • Origin: Breslau, Silesia (then Germany) • Period: circa 1900–1925 • Style: Jugendstil / Art Nouveau Condition In good antique condition, showing age- and use-related wear consistent with their age. Minor surface scratches and patina are present. No repairs, cracks, or structural damage. Collector’s Note A named maker, genuine 800 silver, Jugendstil period design, and the fact that this is a matching pair make these knives an attractive and collectible lot for Catawiki silver and antiques collectors. Additional Information Please refer to the photographs as they form an integral part of the description and accurately show the condition of the items. Private sale from a collection.
