Vintage Letter Opener with integrated gold vermeil sterling silver covered jack knife handle. The letter opener blade and knife blade are both stainless steel. The jack knife handle has an intricate engraved scrolling pattern on both sides and a small rectangular monogram frame on one side - with no monogram. This knife cover is made of sterling and is marked as such, covered with gold plate, and both sides are mounted to the top of the stainless letter blade. The knife blade is marked "Oriental Stainless" on one side and "Japan" on the other. It is likely that this item was produced in the USA in the mid 20th century with imported parts but no further markings give clues. The whole piece measures 6 3/4" long, 5/8" wide and 5/16" thick. The knife section is 3" long and 3/8" wide and the blade alone is 1 1/4" long. In excellent condition - see photos for details. A beautiful and practical item for an office or makes a stunning gift that can be monogrammed to suit the lucky recipient.
