Antique Miniature Mother of Pearl Pocket Knife Charm – Silver Bail Watch Fob

Originally crafted in the late 19th or early 20th century, these tiny functional knives were highly popular as decorative watch fobs, chatelaine tools, and novelty pocket pieces. This specific piece boasts mother-of-pearl handle secured by classic metal pinning. While the main body housing and mechanisms are made of durable historic base metals (like brass or nickel silver) to ensure rigidity, the utility bail at the top has been crafted from sterling silver, making it perfectly safe and ready to slip onto a modern silver chain or charm loop.

This is a genuine antique item showing a beautiful historic patina on its structural metals. The mother-of-pearl handle panels are intact with fantastic iridescence. Please note that the blades show signs of age-appropriate oxidation and darkening, which adds to its authentic vintage character. Blades may require gentle care when opening due to age.
