Christofle - 5pc. Original French Art Deco Sterling Silver Tea Set, 1920s !
By Christofle
Located in Wilmington, DE
Direct from Paris, the birth place of Art Deco, a stunning 4 pc. Art Deco “Gatsby Era” sterling silver tea set plus serving tray by France’s premier silversmith Christofle, silversmith to the Emperor, in like new condition, circa 1920s. The name Christofle is synonymous with exquisite craftsmanship, luxury, and innovation in the world of silversmithing. Founded in the early 19th century, Christofle has established itself as a preeminent maker of fine silverware, celebrated for its elegant designs and impeccable quality. Throughout the 19th century, Christofle expanded its repertoire and clientele. The company garnered significant attention at international exhibitions, including the Great Exhibition of 1851 in London and the Exposition Universelle in Paris. These platforms showcased Christofle's ability to combine traditional craftsmanship with industrial innovation, setting new standards in silverware production.
The 20th century saw Christofle continue to adapt and innovate. The company embraced modern design movements, including Art Nouveau and Art Deco, which profoundly influenced its aesthetic and production techniques. Despite challenges posed by global conflicts and economic fluctuations, Christofle maintained its reputation for quality and luxury. Christofle's commitment to excellence has been recognized with numerous awards and accolades over its long history. The company's participation in international exhibitions frequently resulted in prestigious honors, solidifying its reputation on the global stage. Christofle's association with royalty and nobility is a significant aspect of its illustrious history. The company has supplied silverware to numerous royal households and aristocratic clients, underscoring its reputation for quality and prestige. In the 19th century, Christofle became the official supplier of silverware to Napoleon III. This royal patronage provided the company with unparalleled visibility and credibility. The French court's endorsement of Christofle's products served as a powerful marketing tool, attracting affluent clients from across Europe and beyond. Christofle's appeal extended far beyond France. The company supplied silverware to various European royal households, including those of the Tsar of Russia and the King of Greece. These commissions often involved the creation of bespoke pieces, tailored to the specific tastes and requirements of the royal clients. Such high-profile commissions further enhanced Christofle's reputation as a purveyor of luxury and excellence.
The Art Deco movement, which emerged in the early 20th century, profoundly influenced Christofle's design aesthetic. Characterized by geometric shapes, bold lines, and a focus on modernity, Art Deco represented a departure from the ornate styles of the past. Christofle embraced this movement, incorporating its principles into its silverware designs. Christofle's association with Art Deco is epitomized by its collaboration with renowned designers such as Jean Puiforcat and Luc Lanel. These designers brought a fresh, modern perspective to Christofle's creations, blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design elements. The result was a series of silverware pieces that were both functional and artistically innovative. The Art Deco influence is evident in Christofle's use of clean lines, geometric patterns, and a focus on form and function. This aesthetic was a marked departure from the elaborate, decorative styles that had previously dominated silverware design. Christofle's Art Deco pieces are celebrated for their timeless elegance and modern sophistication.
Among Christofle's most celebrated creations are its 950-sterling silver Art Deco tea sets...

Charles Thomas Fox Sterling Silver Three Piece Tea Service
By Charles Thomas Fox
Located in Jesmond, Newcastle Upon Tyne
An exceptional, fine antique George IV English sterling silver three piece tea service / set made by Charles Thomas Fox; part of our silver teaware collection
This exceptional antique sterling silver three piece tea service consists of a teapot, cream jug and sugar bowl.
Each piece has an oval rounded compressed form on to a collet base and four bracket style feet.
The body of each piece is embellished with chased flower and foliate decoration incorporating a shaped cartouche to either side, each displaying a contemporary bright cut engraved crest of a mower with his scythe proper habited*.
The upper rim of each piece is encompassed with a gadroon decorated border.
The swept shoulders and the swan necked spout of the teapot are further ornamented with chased floral and scrolling leaf decoration.
The original hinged hallmarked cover of the teapot is surmounted with a silver flower and leaf decorated finial.
The teapot is fitted with a C scroll sterling silver handle ornamented with an impressive leaf design incorporated into a scrolling thumbpiece.
The cream jug and sugar bowl have leaf decorated sterling silver C scroll handles and retain the original gilt interiors.
Each piece is supported by four impressive bracket style feet accented with floral and paw ornamentation in the classic Regency style.
The components of this exceptional antique teaware set were crafted by the renowned London silversmith Charles Thomas Fox.
* The crest pertains to the Pilkington family, who are found in the Counties of Lancashire and Yorkshire, although other families bearing the name are found further afield and a similar crest. Whether these families are genealogically connected is not known. The Pilkingtons, of Rivington in the County of Lancashire are probably the more ancient and senior line. Legend has it that a member of the family (which was said to be one of repute prior to the Norman Conquest of 1066) disguised himself when sought by Norman soldiers as a mower and escaped. A similar legend adheres to another Lancashire family, the De Traffords or Traffords in which a member of that family avoided capture by the Parliamentarians during the Civil War of the 17th Century by disguising himself as simple-minded thresher wielding a frail rather than the Pilkington's scythe.
There is certainly a possibility that this tea service was in the possession the baronetcy family of Pilkington, of Stanley in the County of Yorkshire who descended from Sir Alexander de Pilkington who held lands at Rivington during the reign of King Henry III. The baronet at the time of the manufacture of this tea service was Sir William Pilkington, the 8th Baronet (baptised 14th November 1775 died 30th 1850).
