Lincoln Imp Letter Opener

$45.00

A mischievous companion for your desk or altar—this unique letter opener bears the impish visage of Lincoln’s most notorious stone trickster. The Lincoln Imp, legend says, was one of two demons loosed upon medieval England by a devil in merry mood. His crimes: toppling deans, shattering glass, mocking angels. His punishment: petrification mid-taunt, trapped for eternity in Lincoln Cathedral’s Angel Choir.

Now reborn in your hand, this gleeful little fiend invites you to slit open envelopes as if they were forbidden grimoires, to conjure correspondence with a flick both wicked and wise. A talisman of rebellion and curiosity—equal parts relic, rascal, and reminder that even the unruliest spirits can find a kind of immortality in stone… or brass.
