The Knives have palely gilded bladed and beautifully shaded red agate handles.  These could be used when eating fruit, cheese or bread and make quite a statement on the table.  They are in exceptional condition and each blade is very well marked.  George Adams was a prolifice silversmith, who made some of the finest flatware during this period.

Length: 8.5 inches, 21.25 cm
