$119.00

A naturalistic pattern that shows Art Nouveau influences, Royal Oak was patented in 1902, as imprinted on the backside of this lengthy, 8 1/16" long, and weighty at nearly 1.9 T. oz., master butter knife.

Other marks include Gorham's "lion, anchor, G" emblem and the word "Sterling."

The oak and acorn elements that constitute the design are offered in high relief, densely arrayed, and finely detailed, front and backsides of the handle and extending onto the heel of the blade.

The blade is solid silver, relatively long and narrow, and has a scalloped upper edge and a pointed tip.

Never monogrammed, this remains in superb estate condition. Polishing wear is nil, the finish is lustrous and even, the blade is free of bends or nicks.
