Christofle - Ice bucket - Gaul - Silverplated

This is the iconic silver-plated Art Deco ice bucket from Christofle, specifically the well-known 'Biarritz' model from the famous Gallia collection.
This vintage design piece dates back to the 1930s–1950s and was designed by the French silversmith Christofle. The design is characterized by clean, modernist lines, a subtle horizontal parallel line pattern around the body, and a semicircular, movable carrying handle. There is also a removable draining grid to keep the ice cubes dry from the meltwater.
