Magnificent Christofle Marly Silver-Plated Cutlery Set – 42 Pieces We are delighted to offer a stunning, extensive cutlery set from the prestigious French silversmith Christofle, in the highly sought-after Marly pattern. This exquisite pattern, known for its elegant rococo scrolls and meticulously detailed relief work, is a timeless classic that brings sophisticated charm to any dining table. This set consists of 42 pieces of high-quality silver-plated metal, ideal for a refined service of six. The set is in excellent vintage/near-new condition. Many pieces appear to be unused and retain their original protective plastic packaging, as clearly visible in the photographs. The silver plating is bright, lustrous, and impeccably maintained, showing minimal to no signs of wear. Important Note on Patina: While the set is generally well-preserved and retains its original luster, some pieces, even within the sealed packaging, exhibit minor, natural tarnishing (patina) typical of vintage silver-plated items. This light discoloration is a normal oxidation process and can be easily removed with silver polish to restore the full shine. Each piece is hallmarked with the standard Christofle marks, guaranteeing authenticity and quality. This is a beautiful opportunity to acquire a complete, classic Christofle service in a revered design and exceptional condition, perfect for collectors and those who cherish fine dining traditions. A perfect addition to your collection or a magnificent gift.
