An exceptional, fine and impressive antique George V English cast sterling silver desk paperweight in the form of a knight chess piece; an addition to our ornamental office silverware collection.
This exceptional antique George V cast sterling silver paperweight has been realistically modelled in the form of a knight chess piece.

The horse's head knight piece surmounts a plain circular swept pedestal base.
The weighted base bears green baize to the underside.
This sterling silver horse head paperweight is a characterful desk object, celebrating equestrian heritage through finely modelled craftsmanship, and appealing to horse lovers and collectors of animal-themed silver.

This antique sterling silver chess ornament is a superior gauge of silver, superior quality and in exceptional condition.
Full hallmarks struck to the surface of the base are all very clear.
