Refined antique carving set by Christofle, the prestigious French silversmith, dating to the late 19th–early 20th century. This elegant two-piece set includes a carving knife and matching serving fork, preserved in its original fitted presentation case.
Executed in a classic Louis XV / Rococo revival style, the handles are adorned with delicate floral and scroll motifs, reflecting the high decorative standards of French tableware of the period. Both pieces bear the “Christofle” stamp, confirming authenticity.
The original case has been carefully restored internally using fabric consistent with the original design, ensuring both preservation and presentation while maintaining its antique character.
