Antique Silver Letter Opener W1939

Irish Antique Solid Silver Letter Opener – Dublin 1939 by West & Sons (Art Deco)

This elegant antique Irish solid silver letter opener was hallmarked in Dublin in 1939 and crafted by the renowned silversmiths West & Sons. A rare example of Irish Art Deco silver, it is both a practical desk accessory and a collectible piece of fine craftsmanship.

Supplied in a smart gift box, the opener measures a practical length and features a finely crafted silver handle in the clean, geometric style of the Art Deco period. As with all antique and vintage paper knives, the original stainless steel blade had seen heavy use, so it has been replaced with a brand-new stainless steel blade. This ensures the letter opener is both functional for everyday use and retains its antique silver charm.
