Blue and white Chinoiserie porcelain handles on Sheffield stainless steel blades — a cheese knife set that makes a charcuterie board feel like a considered occasion.
House of Prill has been crafting cutlery in Sheffield, England — the historic center of British blade-making — since 1908. This two-piece set, estimated to the 1960s, pairs a pronged cheese knife and a flat spreader, both stamped "Prill Stainless Sheffield England." The handles are the standout: delicate Chinoiserie-style porcelain in blue, white, and gold with tiny flowers, each one housed in its original individual box (boxes show some discoloration with age). Minor surface scratches on the stainless steel portions are consistent with age and light use.
Elegant on a cheese board, a charcuterie spread, or gifted as a set for a housewarming, wedding, or anniversary. A genuinely beautiful pairing of English blade craft and Asian-inspired decorative porcelain — the kind of set that comes out for guests and quietly impresses without trying.
