Silverware Service for 12 in Fitted Art Deco Storage Cabinet, Bafico of France
About the Item
A set of silverware – in a lavishly complete service for 12 that includes a wide array of serving pieces all nestled in a fitted chest that also is used as a small table. Made in the the1920s and imported from France, the case is done in a sleek Art Deco Style with an inlaid dot pattern in the wood finish. The silver pattern has a scalloped detail that bridges both the Art Deco and Art Nouveau style.
This French set was brought to Buenos Aires during the “Golden Age” when Argentina was a wealthy country. All of the “best” homes had boxes like these, with perfectly fitted storage for each utensil. The one we present here has been newly redone with a fresh pale blue fabric that holds 132 pieces.
Make no mistake, an heirloom-worthy set like this can be considered the height of luxury, especially with the matching extra pieces such as fish forks and knives, a tea strainer, tiny salt cellars, a monumental ladle, carving set, and gravy spoon but it is entirely useful with so much variety in the pieces and the table in which to store it. Keeping silverware in a felt-lined chest such as this protects, organizes, and keeps it from tarnishing but the best thing you can do with silverware is to polish occasionally and use it often! Bon Appetit!
