Description from the seller

Set of 12 knives with blades in 950 silver Minerva (first title), and handles in polished mother-of-pearl of exceptional beauty. These knives, signed by the Parisian silversmith Henry Soufflot, are a true masterpiece and a one-of-a-kind piece, in perfect condition despite use. The quality of the silver and the delicate finish of the mother-of-pearl handle make it a precious and refined set. Market value estimated at more than €1,000, but I offer it to you at an attractive price of €400, from an estate. A rare opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts of exceptional pieces.
