Victorian English Mother-of-Pearl Coat of Arms Knives

Think Downton Abbey formality with just enough dirty martini edge to keep it interesting. This 19th-century English set of twelve hand-carved mother-of-pearl knives is pure dinner party theater — engraved with a noble family coat of arms and tucked into its original royal blue velvet presentation box.

Six are luncheon or salad knives, and six are full dinner size. Crafted from Sheffield steel — the good stuff — with luminous pearl handles that catch candlelight like jewelry. Light oxidation adds to their old-world charm; polish if you must, but we like a little patina with our pedigree.
