Letter Openers

Our reproduction Tiffany Letter Openers make the perfect Holiday Gift! Cast in solid bronze, these "paper knives"are functional and beautiful. Each comes boxed with a description of the pattern. We offer seven styles of letter opener. $95.00 each.

Adam - The Adam pattern takes its inspiration from the neoclassical designs of architect Robert Adam (1728 - 1792). This knife is designed with a single, asymmetrical cutting edge and a decorative rosette at the hilt.
Bookmark - This elegant, slender design features the typographical marks of early printers and publishers from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.
Chinese - A highly stylized dragon motif decorates the Chinese letter opener.
9th Century - This knife features a friendly, bushy tailed animal on each side of the handle. The intricate scrolling recalls medieval churches and illuminated manuscripts.
Venetian - The highly decorative patterning on the handle gives this knife an expensive look and feel.
Early Zodiac - The Zodiac motif was Tiffany Studios most popular desk set pattern. The decoration on this knife has an elegant simplicity which suggests Celtic origins.
Zodiac - Due to the popularity of the Zodiac desk set, a more elaborately patterned paper knife was introduced with zodiac symbols on each side.HOLIDAY HOURS
