Description from the seller
Magnificent set of service cutlery for meat, lamb, or duck, with Minerva-guilloche-silvered handles, notable for their quality and contrast. The pieces feature an old Parisian pattern with a fleur-de-lis motif, typical of the Empire style, standing out for its robust presence, elegance, and high decorative refinement.
The handles show meticulous workmanship: geometric reliefs, ornate cartouches, and solid execution that reflects the Parisian tradition of fine cutlery. The set includes a serving knife and a serving fork, both with excellent balance and functional design.
