An Antique Continental ‘800’ Silver Folding Penknife modelled as an owl, complete with original glass eyes. Both sides are finely engraved to suggest plumage, with deeper chased detail around the face for contrast. A small hanging ring is attached at the base, making it suitable for a chatelaine, keyring, or fob chain – circa 1900.
* One of the nicest silver novelty penknives we have seen in some years!
