Description from the seller

8 Christofle knife rests, model “Raquette” by the Art Deco designer Luc Lanel for the house Christofle
I am selling a set of 8 Christofle knife rests, the famous “Raquette” model designed by Art Deco designer Luc Lanel for the Christofle house.
Made of silvered metal, these elegant knife rests are distinguished by their emblematic shape inspired by a tennis racket, characteristic of the geometric style of the 1930s. They bear the Christofle hallmarks and are a fine example of Luc Lanel’s work for the prestigious French silversmith house.
Features :
- Set of 8 knife rests
- Model “Raquette”
- Silvered metal
- Length: about 7.5 cm
- Signed / stamped Christofle
- Art Deco style
- Overall good condition with light signs of use compatible with age
This model is particularly sought after by Art Deco and tableware enthusiasts. Similar sets of 8 to 12 pieces regularly fetch on the auction and antiques market.
Family heirlooms.
Careful packaging and fast delivery.
