Such a charming relic from past times.. a beautiful buy and practical sterling silver and mother of pearl folding Victorian style fruit knife.. I say style as these were made from mid 1850's - 1930's ..this on is hallmarked for Sheffield for 1909.. with a makers mark G.U.
It is 11.3 cm total length when open and has a lovely MOP handle with an interesting raised pattern of bumps (see photos it is hard to describe). it could use a polish but I prefer to leave that to you as some people like the patina..
