The set has been professionally refinished to near new condition and there are no monograms on any of the pieces, circa 1920s. The art of silversmithing is one of the most refined expressions of craftsmanship, blending functionality with artistic beauty. Among the luminaries of this tradition, the French silversmiths Puiforcat and Christofle stand as a paragons of excellence, innovation, and timeless elegance. Founded in the early 19th century, Puiforcat has become synonymous with luxury, precision, and artistry, creating pieces that transcend mere utility to become works of art. The story of Puiforcat begins in 1820, when Jean-Baptiste Fuchs established a silversmith workshop in Paris. From its inception, the brand was dedicated to creating exceptional silverware that combined traditional techniques with innovative designs. However, it was under the leadership of Jean Puiforcat, the grandson of the founder, that the brand truly flourished. Known as the “Father of Art Deco”, Jean Puiforcat, a visionary artist and master silversmith, took the helm in the early 20th century and transformed the company into a beacon of modern design and craftsmanship. Jean Puiforcat was deeply influenced by the Art Deco movement, which emerged in the 1920s and 1930s as a response to the ornate styles of the past. Art Deco emphasized clean lines, geometric shapes, and a harmonious balance between form and function. Under Jean Puiforcat's guidance, the brand embraced these principles, creating pieces that were not only visually striking but also meticulously crafted. This period marked a golden age for Puiforcat, as the brand's creations became synonymous with modernity, sophistication, and luxury. At the heart of Puiforcat's enduring appeal is its unwavering commitment to quality and craftsmanship. Each piece of Puiforcat silverware...
