Letter Opener with Two Little Mice | Two-Tone

A charmingly intricate letter opener from Cartier, depicting two mice in conversation on the handle. The texture and detail on the creatures is especially notable, and is the perfect conversation starter for any desk.

Part of Cartier's extensive history with luxury objects, this letter opener is an unusually intricate piece. It bears a mark stating it was made in Solingen, a German city also known as the "City of Blades", a tribute to their expertise in creating blades of all kinds, including but not limited to knives, razors, scissors, and swords.

The opener itself features a gold-plated handle, tapering off into an angled, silver-toned point. The handle features two miniature mice depicted in conversation, curiously facing each other. The detail they are rendered in is particularly charming, with textured fur, curving tails, complete with delicate face and ears.

An excellent discovery for those looking for a classic Cartier piece with a twist, or to add something unusual to their desk. The letter opener is accompanied by its original case.
