A refined example of French tableware, this silver-plated coffee service embodies the elegance and craftsmanship of the late 19th to early 20th century. Comprising a beautifully shaped coffee pot and matching sugar bowl, the set reflects classic European design with balanced proportions and finely detailed elements.
The pieces feature ornate handles, a gracefully curved spout, and subtle decorative bands, all enhanced by a soft aged patina that highlights their authenticity. The silver plating remains luminous, offering both decorative appeal and functional versatility.
The hallmark “R & Cie” (R… & Compagnie) indicates a French silversmith workshop, a traditional designation used by manufacturers of the period.
