cute, but the age is way off, me thinks!
That is called a horn bird knife and you understand way wrong on the age.
I was skeptical on the age. I was what I was told though. Do you know about when it was made
What a neat piece. Hope this is not against the rules here and if so, I apologize but is this something you would consider selling?
If you took the time to read the rules you would know it is against the rules.
It is a "figural" knife (not a horn bird) in the form of a Peacock. Made in Jezzine, Lebanon. Early-middle 20th Century. Coral and ivory inlays are early; plastic much later. And rules were made to be broken.
