They probably are old French as that is half her line.<br />We like France too, it would be hard to count how many times we've been but I could come close. I should make a record of the timing of our travels. April 2014 we spent the day at LeHarve as we were doing the Princess trans-Atlantic cruise. There was nothing new for us to see in any of the excursions so we just came into town and walked around. When we got to London we stayed with our daughter for a couple of months.<br />..<br />Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-21392818240215876212015-01-29T21:25:35.951-08:002015-01-29T21:25:35.951-08:00These are very cool...and no, I don't have any...These are very cool...and no, I don't have any..but wish every restaurant and household had them!! <br /><br />Blessings,<br />GertGerthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01155756653275943469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-273529961191788075.post-77337278000585192512015-01-29T15:39:47.957-08:002015-01-29T15:39:47.957-08:00I had no idea there are such things as knife holde...I had no idea there are such things as knife holders.

I have worked for a Canadian Pacific Hotel and been to many formal occasions but have never seen a knife rest. It would be interesting to see a knife rest as if it were being used at a meal. would one place it to the right of the dinner plate?
