Cutlery set for 12 (12) - Silverplated

Exceptional and massive vintage flatware service in the prestigious Louis XV / Rococo style. This 51-piece set is a remarkable example of high-quality craftsmanship, featuring deep shell motifs (rocaille) and floral engravings.

Each individual piece is well-preserved, maintaining its original luster and sharp decorative details, as shown in the photographs. Every item bears the authentic "A&P" hallmark accompanied by a small lion symbol.
The service is presented in its original, heavily aged storage case. The exterior of the case shows significant signs of wear and a strong patina of time. Far from being a defect, this authentic "dans son jus" condition serves as a clear testament to the age and historical provenance of the set, confirming it as a genuine antique rather than a modern reproduction.
Composition of the set (51 pieces):
12 Soup spoons (large and heavy)
12 Dinner knives (finely decorated handles)
12 Dinner forks
12 Coffee / dessert spoons
1 Large soup ladle (imposing centerpiece)
1 Large serving spoon
1 Large serving fork
Condition report:
The flatware itself is in good vintage condition with minimal signs of use. The original presentation case is heavily worn, which provides a beautiful historical contrast and confirms the set's authenticity.
