Description from the seller
Set of 10 vintage silver-plated knife rests with 'Jacks / Sputnik' design and 'Boules' shape.
Description
An elegant and timeless set of 10 vintage silver-plated knife rests (porte-couteaux), designed in the iconic minimalist cross-form with spherical ends (crisscrosses/boules). This geometric design is a true mid-century classic and makes a beautiful addition to a chic and refined dining table.
The design features a flowing central rod with cross-shaped legs that end in four solid, perfectly round spheres. Thanks to this balanced construction, the knife rests remain perfectly stable regardless of placement, so place settings never touch the tablecloth and scratches are prevented.
Key features:
• Quantity: 10 pieces (a rare and highly sought-after larger matching set)
• Length: exactly 8 cm
• Design period: mid 20th century (approximately 1950s/1960s)
• Hallmarks: Each individual piece is marked with a master/maker's mark near the base of the legs. Through decades of polishing and actual age, the marks have developed a beautiful, weathered patina.
• Condition: In good, authentic vintage condition with a refined, original matte silver patina (satin finish). If the buyer desires a reflective high-gloss finish, it can easily be polished to a mirror shine with a soft cloth and liquid silver polish.
A wonderful, high-quality addition to any vintage dinnerware collection or for organizing elegant dinners.
Packaging and shipping
• Professional packaging: The set of 10 knife rests is handled with the utmost care. Each piece is individually wrapped in thick, protective bubble wrap to prevent friction and damage during transport. The complete set is shipped in a sturdy, well-padded cardboard box.
• Catawiki Smart Shipping: This lot is shipped through Catawiki's official Smart Shipping program. Shipping costs are automatically calculated based on your location. The package is fully insured and sent with a registered Track & Trace code via reliable partners (such as Bpost, PostNL or DHL/Mondial Relay), ensuring a safe delivery.
