About the model – Japonais
The Japonais pattern is a refined, understated design typical of Christofle’s early 20th-century aesthetic influenced by the Japonisme movement, which swept through Europe from the late 19th century.
This pattern is characterised by:

clean, elongated lines,
soft geometric outlines,
a subtle stylised “tapered shield” terminal typical for Japonisme-inspired designs.

It is a rarely seen pattern, less common on the market than Christofle’s classic Marly, Spatours or America designs, making complete services especially desirable.
