Important before placing a bid

Some pieces show traces of oxidation, surface marks, scratches and signs of previous use or storage. These characteristics are visible in the photographs and should be carefully considered before bidding.

The visible marks are primarily surface oxidation, scratches, patina and traces of previous cleaning or use. The metal and silver-plated surfaces have not been intentionally stripped or destroyed.

The complete collection would benefit from professional cleaning and polishing. With appropriate professional treatment, many of the pieces can regain a considerably brighter and more attractive appearance.

The photographs form an important part of the description and show the actual condition of the items, including scratches, oxidation, patina, wear and other signs of age.

This is a substantial and varied collection intended for collectors and connoisseurs of Christofle, Art Deco tableware, vintage silver-plated objects and European tableware design.

Please examine all photographs carefully and bid according to the condition shown.
