WWII Nazi Eva Braun Hitler Silverware Butter Knife
Eva Braun Butter Knife. Eva Braun was the lover of Adolf Hitler and eventually became his wife the day before their suicide. Braun had known Hitler since 1929 and came to be lovers in 1931. Though Hitler wanted to maintain the image that he was single and solely dedicated to his work, he made many accommodations for Braun and spent many nights with her alone, either in his vacation home Berghof near Berchtesgaden or in his apartment in Munich and Berlin. She would marry Hitler on April 29, 1945 before committing suicide together with him the next day. One of the accommodations made for Braun was custom silverware, tableware, and other items. The butter knife has the EB monogram etched into the bottom of the handle. The blade has a pattern along the top edge. The knife has seen some use. Excellent condition. See lots 194-206 for more of Eva Braun's items. From the Michael Clifton collection. 8.5"
