Edwardian Silver Fruit Knife

Edwardian silver fruit knife by Arthur Worral Stanisford with mother of pearl handle, hallmarked from Sheffield in 1904.
A couple of minor edge knocks to blade but overall a nice clean example of good size with an unengraved shield shaped cartouche.

During the 18th century, as folding fruit knives became popular in England, they spread to the British Colonies and into America becoming a popular type of knife as a result of their versatility and men often gave them as presents to their wives or girlfriends.
