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...
