GODEY'S LADY'S BOOK
Philadelphia, April 1850

APPLICATION OF ANTIQUE FORMS TO MODERN ART.

A BUTTER KNIFE, BREAD KNIFE, AND CHEESE KNIFE.

THE handle of the bread knife is an ear of Indian corn carved in wood; the design on the blade is a child reaper. The handle of the cheese knife is an ear of grain; the figure on the blade is pressing cheese. That on the blade of the butter knife is churning.
