Gallia Art Nouveau Silver-Plated Bread Basket by Christofle, Early 20th Century
Created by the Christofle workshops, the Gallia collection was a true revolution in tableware at the beginning of the 20th century.
Christofle's democratization of tableware is embodied by the Gallia collection, making it more accessible and creative for everyone. These pieces, ranging from simple shapes to more elaborate decorative objects, have never been so beautiful, becoming true little jewels of French tableware thanks to the advent of the Art Nouveau era and increased demand.
This silver-plated bread basket embodies the quintessence of Art Nouveau, with an organic form and fluid curves inspired by nature. Its ovoid shape is complemented at the ends by baskets adorned with flowers whose corollas are fully open and their stems fan out.
In very good overall condition, with slight signs of wear consistent with age, which is to be expected for an object over 120 years old.
Fast and careful shipping to France, Europe, and worldwide.
