Pearl Handle Knife - Vintage Mappin & Webb

Pearl Handle Knife - Vintage Mappin & Webb Pretty knife with a decorated gold wash round tip blade. Marked M & W (and something else I can’t read) on the blade. Think this is the mark of Mappin & Wells, but not certain. Could be used as an hors d’oeuvres knife or a buffet serving knife. About 7½” long, not marked sterling so assuming silver plate. Good vintage condition. Mappin & Webb is a true British treasure with over 240 years of tradition. It’s a story that began in 1775, when Jonathan Mappin opened a workshop in Sheffield. His mission was to create the most beautifully crafted silverware for British society. It was in the Mappin family until 1963. In 2012 Mappin & Webb craftsmen appointed as the Crown Jeweller. Still in business at 132 Regent Street. F-58-LROB-8o
