Vintage Art Nouveau letter opener - Female bust design

A solid brass art nouveau style letter opener. 

This large piece is perfect as for altar use of decoration, as an athame or to be a feature point on a desk

The item is in good condition with some mild tarnishes and blemishes: There is some verdigris around the bust detailing but is a natural result of age and exposure. The blade features some wear but as a vintage item wear is to be expected and the hair design has some sharp edges. A solid and heavy item for its size.

Measures: 20.4cm in length
