A fine silver plated modernist design wine / Champagne cooler, measuring circa 20,5cm in height and weighing 1,1Kg, of elegant, tapered design with holes for handles. Stamped to the underside with l´Ecuyer maker´s mark and centaur logo. L´Ecuyer was a Parisian luxury manufacturer of silverware and silver plated goods that came to prominence in the early 20th century with luxury tea and coffee services and other tableware, recognizable by their heavy, thick industrial silver-plating and clean geometric lines. The company produced a range of high-end luxury lifestyle items in the period 1950s -1970s. Apologies for the difficulties in photographing such an item with a mirror-polished surface.
