AI-assisted summary

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.

Composition — 277 pieces

The service comprises an extensive selection of:

* Dinner forks, knives and spoons
* Entremets / dessert forks, knives and spoons
* Fish forks and fish knives
* Fruit forks and fruit knives
* Dessert spoons
* Coffee spoons
* Tea spoons
* Cocktail spoons
* Citrus / grapefruit spoons
* Crustacean picks and specialised seafood utensils
* An exceptional collection of serving and accessory pieces

The extensive group of specialised serving and accessory pieces alone weighs approximately 2,876 g.

Weight

The principal solid silver components have a combined weight of approximately:

11,000 g of silver

the total weight of Knives and accessories is around 4430g

This brings the overall gross weight of the complete 277-piece service to approximately 14.4 kg.

With its substantial fitted wooden storage case, the complete ensemble has an approximate shipping/gross weight of:

20 kg

Please note that the weight of composite pieces such as knives includes their blades, handles and internal construction where applicable.

Rarity & Importance

Complete historic silver services of this magnitude are exceptionally difficult to find on the market today. Sets have frequently been divided between generations or dispersed over decades, making such a large and coherent 277-piece Jezler Régence service an outstanding collector’s opportunity.

The exceptional number of specialised utensils and serving pieces further distinguishes this ensemble from conventional table services.

A museum-quality statement service, suitable for an important collection, prestigious residence or exceptional dining setting.

Valuation

Estimated value: more than €35,000

Considering the exceptional completeness, approximately 14 kg overall gross weight, the prestigious Jezler manufacture, Régence pattern and the extraordinary 277-piece composition, the estimated market value for a comparable complete ensemble is approximately: €50k

An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a monumental Swiss silver service of a scale and completeness that is extremely difficult to reproduce on today’s market.
