The everyday beauty of Silver, brought to you by {name}

Chiara Scotto Pasanisi dei Foscarini

Finely crafted Hanau silver sugar tongs made by the renowned workshop J.D. Schleißner Söhne, one of the most important Hanau silversmith families of the late 19th century.

The piece is richly decorated in Rococo revival style, featuring ornate reliefs and a twisted handle.
The spoon-shaped tips are gilded (gold-washed).
Marked with “800” and the characteristic sickle-shaped maker’s mark attributed to Schleißner (ref. Scheffler, Goldschmiede Hessens, no. 446a).

Condition:
Very good, with light signs of age and use. Gilding intact. No repairs.

Dimensions:
– Length: approx. 13 cm
– Weight: approx. 43 g
– Material: 800 silver, partial gilding

An elegant and collectible example of high-quality Hanau silverwork.

Excellent condition: barely used with minimal signs of wear
