Dating to approximately the 1960's-1970's, the wonderfully animated figures bring just the right amount of whimsy to an elegant table.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTraditionally used to keep a dining knife (and any accompanying sauce or juices) off the tablecloth between courses, knife rests are one of those nearly forgotten pieces of tableware that are still useful and delightful today. These are equally useful as chopstick rests or simply as decorative objects scattered along a table.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach horse measures approximately 3.25 inches long, with enough weight and presence to feel substantial in the hand. The set has polished beautifully, highlighting the sculptural detail and movement of each figure. Unmarked.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDate: c. 1960's-1970's\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Silverplate\u003cbr\u003eSet: Eight knife rests\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: Approximately 3.25\" long each\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very good vintage condition with light surface wear and patina consistent with age and use.
