Our expert's notes

A dagger used in the production of the Victorian detective film Sherlock Holmes. After preventing a sacrificial murder by Lord Blackwood (Mark Strong), who is subsequently executed, detective Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr) and Dr John Watson (Jude Law) are called upon to investigate a series of occult murders related to a resurrected Blackwood, the Masons and the mysterious Professor Moriarty.
This dagger can be seen being wielded by the hypnotised girl being murdered by Lord Blackwood in the bowels of a London house, stopped in the nick of time by Holmes. Made of resin, the ceremonial blade features a head intended to replicate the appearance of carved wood, a carved ram’s head with faux-pearl eyes adorning the top of it, while the long, thin blade protrudes from its base. The paint finish is of blackened steel and bronze, giving the weapon an ethereal, mystical appearance that plays to Lord Blackwood’s strengths as an illusionist.

Featuring only minimal wear from use on the production, the dagger remains in a very good production-used condition, and is presented in a stunning bespoke framed display featuring the film’s poster, a description of the item and an opening front panel that allows direct access to the piece. The display measures 63cm x 59cm x 9cm (24.75” x 23.25” x 3.75”).
