A Set of Towle Silversmiths King Richard Pattern Sterling Silver Handled Knives - A set of table knives featuring weighted sterling silver handles and stainless steel blades. The handles are decorated in the King Richard pattern, which is distinguished by an ornate shell and scroll motif at the terminal and a bolstered neck. The side of each handle is impressed with the literal text STERLING HANDLE followed by a shield containing a script T, a lion passant, and a script O inside a circle, identifying the maker as Towle Silversmiths. The curved, sabre-profile blades are stamped near the bolster with the word STAINLESS in block letters. One knife is shown positioned horizontally to display the marks clearly.
