Description from the seller

Mixed Silver-Plated Tableware Set - Italian Art Dessert Set, 6 Classic “Krupp Berndorf” Teaspoons and Salt/Pepper Set (21 Pieces Total)

Vintage mixed tableware set comprising a total of 21 silver-plated pieces, made by various European manufacturers between the late 19th century and the mid-20th century.
The lot consists of three distinct yet complementary sections for setting a dessert or after-dinner table. The Krupp Berndorf section and the salt/pepper set come with their original vintage hard cases, lined with fabric.

1. The Italian Art Dessert Set (12 Pieces - No Case)
6 coordinating dessert spoons and 6 three-tined dessert forks.
Openwork twisted handles with figural and heraldic finials, each different, inspired by historic models from the Italian craft tradition .
• Length: 14.5 cm.
• Total set weight: 202 g.
Stamped “Italy.”

2. The Set of 6 Classic “Krupp Berndorf” Teaspoons (6 Pieces - With Original Case)
6 dessert/tea spoons.
A classic, understated and elegant design, with smooth handles shaped with a molded profile along the edges.
• Length: 14.5 cm. 143 g
Stamped K.G.B. 90-18, certifying the historic Austro-German manufacturer Krupp Berndorf and the heavy-gauge silver-plating standard (90 grams).
Original vintage box with sky-blue satin lining.

3. The Salt and Pepper Set (3 Pieces - With Original Case)
1 salt shaker (single hole), 1 pepper shaker (multiple holes), and 1 matching oval serving tray.
Slender, faceted spiral design on the shakers; shaped tray finished with a gadrooned edge.
Height: 8 cm / Width: 4.5 cm.
Total weight: 284 g (solid and substantial in the hand).
Mark: Unmarked (no visible maker’s marks).
Original vintage case entirely lined in purple/plum velvet.

Excellent vintage and antique condition, consistent with age.
The silver plating is well preserved and lustrous on all 21 pieces, with a light and pleasant natural patina from age. Exception: the base of the small oval tray, which, although not visible, shows signs of age.
• Original Cases (Blue and Purple): Both vintage boxes are sturdy, structurally intact, and have working clasps. The interior fabrics show the usual minimal signs of the pieces having been stored in them over the decades, but retain their original vivid colors.

Seller's Story

For over 20 years, I have dedicated myself passionately to the search for and trading of special, rare, curious objects from any era. Every piece I select has something that catches my attention: it can be the shape, the story, the unusual aspect, or simply that detail that makes it unique. I am always searching for objects that speak, that tell something to those who know how to listen. I choose them carefully, photograph them honestly, and describe them as accurately as possible. Selling on this Catawiki to share this passion with those who, like me, love to surround themselves with things with a soul.
