Refined and discreet, this antique paper knife embodies the elegance of Belle Époque desks. Its silver-plated steel blade, finely engraved at the base with geometric patterns — rhombuses, triangles, stars — contrasts with the understated elegance of the turned black wooden handle, encircled with regularly spaced silver-plated metal rings.

Ideal for decoration, as a gift, or for a collector of antique office items.
