Serving cutlery in a case. Silver, silver gilt, textile, etc. Puiforcat, France, circa 1900. With contrast markings. A pair of serving utensils with silver handles in their natural color and gilt-plated parts, decorated with engraved and embossed elements in the Neoclassical tradition, and openwork areas with vegetal motifs. Émile Puiforcat, upon taking over his uncle's company, registered the hallmark that the firm still uses today (a knife flanked by the letters E and P). The rectangular case, with front closures, features a strip referencing a Brussels jewelry and goldsmith shop called De Coster Paternoster (located at 128 Rue Royale), which sold notable pieces such as diamond earrings, cufflinks, etc. Weight: 296 grams.
