About the Item

Antique late 19th Century French rare and important Empire style pair of solid silver dishes, each of circular form with very fine acanthus leaves borders and chased with a frieze of floral scrolls and laurel leaves, winged griffins facing towards masks, and flanked by roman style urns on a matted ground. The dishes raised on cast winged lion paw feet. Engraved with the initials MPF within a garland. Each plate is hallmarked French silver (950 standard, used 1838-present), Paris, Marks for Odiot (Between 1894 and 1906 the company used the "PR Cie" with a lamp mark. This mark was for the company formed by Gustave Odiot, Emile Provost and Paul Edouard Recipon), and inventory numbers. La Maison Odiot, or House of Odiot was founded in 1690 by Jean-Baptiste Gaspard Odiot, fine silversmith during the reign of Louis XV. However it was with his grandson, Jean Baptiste Claude Odiot (born in 1763) that the firm reached its peak of notoriety, receiving exceptional commissions from Napoleon’s court and the most important Royal families of the world. In 1802 the firm participated at the International Exposition de l’Industrie in Paris winning the gold medal. Soon after, Odiot succeeded Henry Auguste as Napoleon’s official silversmith and was commissioned both the sceptre and the sword for his coronation in 1804, two massive dinner services for Napoleon’s mother and sister and one for the Emperor’s campaigns.
