Vintage Sterling Pen Knife with Floral Scroll Like Pattern and Engravable Center-
Pen knives, a subcategory of pocket knives, were originally designed in the 18th and 19th centuries to sharpen quill pens. These knives are typically smaller, more delicate, and elegant in form often featuring mother-of-pearl, bone, ivory, or tortoiseshell handles. Because they were both decorative and functional, pen knives were popular accessories for gentlemen and ladies alike. Today, collectors seek these knives for their fine craftsmanship and ornate design.
