Mixed Metals by Dominick and Haff
An exceptional antique set of 10 sterling silver citrus knives by Dominick Haff, featuring hand-hammered surfaces and elaborate applied gold and copper decorations. Each knife measures 7 3/4 inches long and displays distinctive naturalistic motifs, including salamanders, birds, squirrels, butterflies, and foliage. The varied mixed-metal designs reflect the influence of the Aesthetic Movement and Japanese decorative arts on late 19th-century American silver.
Dominick Haff, established in New York in 1872, was renowned for its fine sterling silver craftsmanship and artistic designs. The combination of hand-hammered sterling silver and applied mixed-metal wildlife motifs makes this an unusual and highly collectible set.
This complete set of 10 knives features engraved matching monograms on the blades and this set is in good vintage condition, as shown. An outstanding example of Victorian American art silver.
