ANTIQUES 

Antique silver has long been at the heart of the European dining tradition. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, it reflected both the finest standards of silversmithing and the elegance of formal entertaining. As dining rituals became increasingly sophisticated, silver assumed a central role on the table, with an ever-growing array of specialized pieces created for every course and occasion. From elaborate centrepieces to finely crafted serving wares, antique silver embodies a remarkable combination of beauty, function and craftsmanship.

Our collection brings together a wide range of antique silver and silver plate, illustrating the evolution of design from the Second Empire through the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods to the finest twentieth-century creations. It features works by some of Europe's most celebrated silversmiths and manufacturers, including Christofle, Gallia, Puiforcat, Tétard, Asprey, Tiffany & Co., Franco Lapini and Buccellati, which continue to be sought after by collectors and discerning buyers.

Our selection includes cutleries, serving platters and trays, tea and coffee services, salt cellars, cruet sets, carafes, jugs, wine and champagne coolers, cocktail shakers, menu holders, knife rests, and a wide variety of other silver objects designed to enhance your receptions. Whether intended for use, collecting or display, each piece combines lasting quality with timeless elegance, making antique silver as relevant to the contemporary table as it was when it was first created.

Asparagus plates and serving dishes, oyster plates, tureens, salad bowls, and large centrepieces: majolica and barbotine reveal a world of sculpted forms and rich, vibrant colours, where nature—foliage, vegetables, and marine motifs—finds its way onto the table with joyful naturalism.

These pieces reflect the renewed fascination, at the end of the nineteenth century, with iridescent glazes and exuberant decoration inspired by the Italian Renaissance. Some bear the mark of the great manufactories of the period—Minton and Wedgwood in England, Sarreguemines and Creil et Montereau in France—which combined imaginative design with technical mastery.

Beautiful objects for everyday, decorative, sometimes useful that give just that extra something we need for homes, traditional or modern. Works by artists and artisans, that link us to our past.
