Christofle - Pot - Plaqué(e) argent, Bakélite

An elegant silver-plated teapot/coffeepot by the renowned French silversmith Christofle, distinguished by its graceful baluster form and original black Bakelite handle. Combining refined proportions with timeless design, this piece beautifully reflects the quality and craftsmanship for which Christofle has long been celebrated.
The teapot has acquired a soft, authentic patina over time, enhancing its antique character while preserving the brilliance of the silver plating. The original hinged lid fits well and opens and closes smoothly, and the interior remains clean and well preserved.
The teapot is in very good antique condition, showing normal signs of age and use. There is one dent on the back of the body (please refer to the photographs), which does not affect its stability, functionality, or overall visual appeal.
A refined and highly decorative Christofle piece, equally suited for elegant table service, display, or as an addition to a collection of fine French silver-plated objects.
