Description

Christofle of Paris, famous French maker late 19th century/early 20th century unusual and wonderful silver plate serving set comprising 6 servers in the original leatherette green lined fitted case bearing the gilt Christofle retail stamp. 3 of the servers are types of forks, while 3 are types of spoons, and all are marked with the Christofle mark.
