Christofle “Malmaison” Silver-Plated Oil & Vinegar Cruet Set with Crystal Bottles – France

Elegant and refined Christofle “Malmaison” oil and vinegar cruet set, comprising two crystal cruet bottles with original stoppers mounted in a silver-plated stand with central carrying handle. The tray and holder feature the iconic Malmaison palm and lotus leaf frieze, one of Christofle’s most celebrated Empire-style designs inspired by the Château de Malmaison, the residence associated with Napoleon Bonaparte and Empress Joséphine.

This sophisticated French table accessory combines luxury silverwork with heavy crystal and was designed for serving olive oil and vinegar at the dining table. The symmetrical form, classical detailing, and clean architectural lines make it suitable for both traditional and contemporary interiors.

The Christofle hallmark is visible on the base, confirming authenticity.
