Description from the seller

Beautiful set of 13 antique table knives dating from the late 19th century or early 20th century.

The knives are fitted with turned wooden handles and steel blades showing a beautiful original patina. The metal ferrules with pearl-inlaid decoration testify to careful craftsmanship.

No manufacturer markings are visible on the blades, which is common for cutlery sets from this era.

The set is homogeneous, with some differences in handle shade due to natural aging of the wood and use. The blades show signs of use, light oxidation specks, and sharpening marks in keeping with their age.

Condition

* Good overall condition for its age.
* Original patina.
* Normal signs of wear.
* Some small cracks and color variations on certain handles.
* No aggressive cleaning or polishing has been performed in order to preserve their authenticity.

Features

* Number: 13 knives
* Materials: steel and wood
* Origin: France (probable)
* Era: late 19th – early 20th century (circa 1880–1910)
