Product Description

Britain 1911 George V period - Sea wave sterling silver handle sword-shaped letter opener This letter opener is very classic and has a totem designed by Robert Pringle & Sons Silver Company between 1910 and 1911. The handle has a ripple relief representing the waves, which should be a tribute to their great Sailor King George V who had just ascended the throne. King George V of the United Kingdom was known as the Sailor King. He loved sailing, and before he ascended the throne, his greatest wish was to become a naval officer. As the second son of Edward VII, people did not have high expectations for George to become king, so he did not have this heavy burden since childhood, which also made him casual and unrestrained. He once got a dragon tattoo while traveling in Japan, which caused a sensation at the time. It was his unconventional personality that enabled him to make great changes and have the courage to change the original pro-German old dynasty surname to Windsor. As the founder of the first generation of the Windsor dynasty, he led the British people to victory in the First World War. This letter knife has the meaning of riding the wind and waves, and also represents the symbol of the Sailor King admired by the British people.
