This pocket knife, crafted in Sheffield at the turn of the 20th century, combines 925 sterling silver with genuine mother-of-pearl scales. The handle features a smooth, iridescent surface with shifting tones of white, cream, and silver, revealing subtle changes in the light. Its proportions are slender and balanced, complemented by silver fittings, a rectangular cartouche engraved with the initials 'CWMP', and visible construction rivets. The blade, concealed in the folded position, retains a matte, slightly darkened finish. Minor surface scratches and gentle traces of use are consistent with the piece’s age and attest to its authenticity. The knife evokes an era where craftsmanship was intertwined with understated ornamentation. Cool reflections on the mother-of-pearl surface create an illusion of movement and depth, as if capturing a silent fragment of the past. The tactile smoothness of the materials and the engraved silver suggest a personal narrative, while the slender silhouette and gentle curves transform the object into both a tool and a keepsake of bygone rituals. It may be displayed in a glass showcase or on a velvet mat, paired with other small accessories in metal and natural materials, such as pocket watches or fountain pens. Placing it among muted tones—beige, grey, or dark wood—can accentuate the iridescent quality of the mother-of-pearl. The knife also works as a refined accent on a desk or within an antiques collection, blending harmoniously with soft lighting and period details.
