Christofle - Malmaison – Set of 12 Table Knives 24,5cm.

A refined set of 12 table knives from the prestigious French silversmith Christofle, crafted in the iconic Malmaison pattern. Inspired by the decorative style of the French Empire period and named after Château de Malmaison, the residence of Napoleon Bonaparte and Empress Joséphine, this model is among Christofle’s most celebrated and enduring designs.

The Malmaison pattern is distinguished by its elegant symmetry, delicate palmette motifs, fluted finials, and neoclassical ornamentation. The sophisticated design reflects the grandeur of early 19th-century French decorative arts while remaining timeless and highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of fine tableware.

This lot comprises twelve table knives measuring approximately 24.5 cm in length. The knives bear the Christofle France mark on the stainless-steel blades and feature silver-plated handles. They remain in good overall condition, showing only light signs of use consistent with age, including minor scratches and a few small dents. Please refer carefully to the photographs for an accurate impression of their condition.

Whether used for elegant dining or added to an existing Malmaison service, these knives embody the exceptional craftsmanship and luxury for which Christofle has been renowned since 1830.
