Description
On offer today is a splendid genuine Cased SHEFFIELD MADE Sterling Silver Handled Desk Set which consists of a Letter Opener and a Magnifying Glass, both bearing the Varden pattern. We are the only people on eBay selling these beautiful sets ! Each piece comes with their own cases and would make an excellent present.
The Sterling Silver handles have matching hallmarks and are fully marked for Sheffield with the letter e for 1922 along with the Lion Passant, Crown and the Makers mark which is JB - the Makers Mark for the very famous John Biggin. The silver handles on this particular Desk set are in pristine condition as the photos reflect and looks very special, a very unique set indeed. The hallmarks are clear and crisp on this set, as expected. The glass measures 5 cms across. The set is beautifully crafted, this truly is a lovely set.
The Letter Opener is 22 cm in length and weighs a hefty 36 grammes. The Magnifying Glass is 13 cm in length and weighs a hefty 34 grammes.
It is a very desirable set and would cost an awful lot of money in a retail outlet today.
Thankyou for reading my listing and please do look at my other items as I offer other Desk sets in various patterns !
Don't waste your money on a second rate commonplace set when you can buy a HIGH QUALITY BRITISH MADE GOOD.
Kind Regards Jack
