knivesWe are delighted to be offering some exquisitely handcrafted items from Jezzine, Lebanon, designed and signed by S & A Haddad. 1950’s or 1960’s, each piece is hand carved and therefore one of a kind, from buffalo and camel horns. In the shape of an ancient Phoenix firebird, the wings are brass, the dots are inlaid ground stone or horn, the utensils are stainless steel that is signed, the crisscrossed inlay is silver. Impeccably made; last photo shows a worker adding the inlay before it is polished. Original vintage flatware sets have sold for thousands of dollars and are becoming highly collectible.knives2

This listing is for set of 11 serrated steak knives, 8-1/2″ long. Color is butterscotch caramel.  Very hard to find pieces. 

  • They are nearly new condition,  very clean and beautifully crafted. 
  • Signed and marked with hallmarks as shown in photos.
  •  In their original cloth storage roll-up bag which shows wear and tear.
  • Please hand wash to preserve the beautiful colors.
  • We have a coordinating set of salad servers listed separately. Happy to combine shipping for extra savings.

Jezzine factories were destroyed during the Lebanese Civil War (1975 to 1992), and current Jezzine ware has a plastic handle which is nowhere near up to this design quality.  Available in our eBay Store Connectibles.
