Alphonse Debain, Paris - Cutlery set - Paris 1890

Magnificent and rare French serving set by the distinguished silversmith Alphonse Debain (Paris).
The handles are made of 950 solid silver, finely ornamented in a classical pattern typical of late 19th-century French craftsmanship.
All pieces bear the Minerva head hallmark and Debain maker’s mark, clearly visible in the photographs.

These are impressive, substantial pieces, both visually and in hand – elegant, perfectly proportioned, and highly decorative.
Condition is excellent, with no damage or wear beyond minimal age-related patina.

A rare collector’s item, seldom seen in such complete and pristine condition.
The original case is not included due to damage (see photos).
