Early 19th Century British Antique White Pearl Handle Sterling Silver Blade Folding Fork
SKU: 202404044266
We would like to introduce you to a British antique folding fork.
This is thought to be from the Georgian period in the first half of the 19th century, but the exact year of manufacture and manufacturer are unknown because the hallmarks are unclear.
It has a mother-of-pearl handle and a sterling silver blade, resembling a penknife that can be stored in the handle.
I have never seen this type of fork before and it is a very rare fork.
We hope that this “once in a lifetime opportunity” will be a special encounter for you!
