Description from the seller

An antique French silver tranche-set in .950 (first quality) silver. The set, consisting of a paring knife and a carving fork, was manufactured in the period 1887 to 1912 by the silversmith Edmond Zeihen in Paris. The handles of the pieces are machine-engraved with wavy lines, forming a lattice pattern. On the underside a cartouche with a pearl border, floral details and a monogram "D".

The original box is still present. It is in reasonable condition. The fabric inside the lid is torn in several places.

Seller's Story

We have over 10 years of experience in collecting & trading silverware, curiosities, and small antiques. Because sifting through history is my real passion, I will do everything I can to trace the origin of objects down to the smallest detail. Our focus lies on silverware and silver-plated cutlery, although we enthusiastically buy a wide range of antiques and vintage from the 18th through the 20th century. To expand the collection, we are constantly looking for splendor, quirks, antiques & curiosities. We are always on the lookout for silverware from famous manufacturers such as Christofle, Ercuis, Wiskemann, van Kempen & Begeer and many more. All our lots are shipped insured for their value by parcel post, or in some cases by courier service. All of our objects are shipped fully insured. We can arrange specialized transport in consultation with the client. If you have any questions or comments, we are at your service to provide the best possible service. We would like to see our objects find a new and, above all, a satisfied home! See you soon at Catawiki and in our online shop!
