Late Victorian silver handled and ivory letter opener, hallmarked Cornelius Desormeaux Saunders...

Items are in varied condition, however all display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use.  Chip to rounded tip of ivory blade, also other nicks, deeper scratches and some loss of detail to decoration on silver handle.  Some rust visible to button hook and various small surface dints to handle.  Hallmarks are partly obscured.  General wear to blades and contact marks on mother of pearl knives.  Main blade is missing on the other knife, although there still appears to be a smaller one present.  Hallmarks on all are mainly legible.
