A really unusual silver letter opener with a Roman Soldier handle.  This letter opener is a fantastic weight, shape and size and the figure is incredibly well cast, the detail is incredibly crisp and accurate.  The feature hallmark is also a lovely addition.  Although the number of letters we receive is small what a great way to open a letter this would be! A great piece of collectable and unusual silver that can also be used and enjoyed.
