This is a rare and beautiful mid victorian antique leaded crystal faceted double knife rest I recently brought home from England. It is quite old, dating to around 1850-1870. This knife rest has been hand and not machine faceted and is very hard to find as it is a double knife rest designed to support 2 knives instead of one. It has only a few tiny facet chips and some wear marks and is really in very good condition for it's age. Knife rests were popularized by the victorians as a way to keep your tablecloth clean during dinner courses and reduced the number to be washed. Clever as well as decorative. Shipping in the US by USPS priority insured is $9.50. |
