Vintage Sterling Handled Bride's Cake Knife

For the sweetest moment of any bridal banquet, we are pleased to present this magnificent Vintage Bride's Silverplate Cake Knife in its original box. Lovingly sourced at a silver market in northern England, it is a romantic reminder of the elegance of a bygone era. With an Irish sterling silver handle decorated with wedding bells and forget me knots and a practical stainless steel blade, this would have been a treasured wedding present.

In Victorian England and early 20th-century America, a bride might receive a silver or silver-plated knife as a wedding gift, sometimes as part of a larger bridal silver set. These pieces were meant to usher a young couple into married life with elegance and practicality. The knife was typically used for the ceremonial first slice of the wedding cake—a moment rich with symbolism, signifying the couple’s first shared act and their commitment to providing for each other.

An especially charming engagement or wedding present, this exquisite knife is ready to enhance the delicious beauty of any dessert service and grace your table for generations to come.

Strictly one-of-a-kind and subject to prior sale. In very good vintage condition. Cake Knife measures 13.25" in length. Case measures 14.25"L x 2.25"W x 1.25"H.
