Description from the seller
JEZLER — Exceptional 277-Piece Solid Silver Flatware Service — Régence Pattern — Approx. 14.410 kg Total — Switzerland
An exceptional and extraordinarily extensive 277-piece solid silver flatware service by Jezler, one of Switzerland’s most prestigious historic silversmiths.
Executed in the elegant Régence pattern, this remarkable service represents an extremely rare opportunity to acquire an almost unprecedented ensemble, distinguished not only by the number of pieces but also by the extraordinary variety of specialised flatware and serving utensils.

* Fish forks and fish knives
* Fruit forks and fruit knives
* Dessert spoons
* Coffee spoons
* Tea spoons

Rarity & Importance
