An elegant French silver bowl made by Parisian silversmith Louis Coignet, featuring refined decoration inspired by the Directoire style. The rounded body rests on a low circular foot and is decorated with engraved panels, repoussé shell motifs and finely detailed gadrooned borders. The interior retains its original gilding, creating a beautiful contrast with the polished silver exterior. Made of solid 950/1000 silver, bearing the French Minerva hallmark with the number 1 and the maker's mark LC with crossed cutlery, attributed to Louis Coignet. The bowl measures 21 cm in diameter, 7.5 cm in height and weighs 425 g. Preserved in very good antique condition. From the Bednarek family collection, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and historical documentation.
