Puiforcat (Hermes) - 2pc. Louis XVI Sterling Silver Vegetable Server - MINT !
Located in Wilmington, DE
Direct from a private residence in Paris, a magnificent 19th century, Louis XVI covered sterling silver tureen by the world's premier French silversmith "Puiforcat", currently owned by Hermes, a beautifully elegant set - Circa 1890s, MAGNIFICENT. The art of silver-smithing has been a distinguished part of French heritage for centuries, producing some of the most exquisite and sought-after silverware in the world. Among the names synonymous with excellence in this field, Puiforcat stands out for its unparalleled craftsmanship, rich history, royal patronage, and innovative designs. Puiforcat's story began in 1820 when Jean-Baptiste Fuchs, a skilled silversmith, established a workshop in Paris. This workshop laid the foundation for what would become one of the most prestigious names in silver-smithing. In 1857, Louis-Victor Puiforcat, Fuchs' son-in-law, joined the business, bringing with him a passion for the craft that would define the company’s future. The business was subsequently renamed "Puiforcat" and began to flourish, gaining a reputation for its exceptional silverware. Throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, Puiforcat expanded its range of products, producing not only silver flatware but also intricate tableware, decorative pieces, and objets d'art. The company's commitment to quality and innovation was evident in their designs, which often incorporated elements of Art Deco, a style that became closely associated with Puiforcat during the early 20th century. This period also saw the involvement of Jean Puiforcat, a visionary designer who played a crucial role in establishing the brand's modern identity. Puiforcat's silver pieces are renowned for their exceptional quality and craftsmanship. Each piece is meticulously crafted by skilled artisans who adhere to traditional techniques passed down through generations. The process of creating Puiforcat silver pieces involves multiple stages, including design, forging, chasing, and polishing, each requiring a high level of expertise and precision. One of the hallmarks of Puiforcat silverware...

Antique and Vintage Serveware, Ceramics, Silver and Glass

Your dining room table is a place where stories are shared and personalities shine — why not treat yourself and your guests to the finest antique and vintage glass, silver, ceramics and serveware for your meals?

Just like the people who sit around your table, your serveware has its own stories and will help you create new memories with your friends and loved ones. From ceramic pottery to glass vases, set your table with serving pieces that add even more personality, color and texture to your dining experience.

Invite serveware from around the world to join your table settings. For special occasions, dress up your plates with a striking Imari charger from 19th-century Japan or incorporate Richard Ginori’s Italian porcelain plates into your dining experience. Celebrate the English ritual of afternoon tea with a Japanese tea set and an antique Victorian kettle. No matter how big or small your dining area is, there is room for the stories of many cultures and varied histories, and there are plenty of ways to add pizzazz to your meals.

Add different textures and colors to your table with dinner plates and pitchers of ceramic and silver or a porcelain lidded tureen, a serving dish with side handles that is often used for soups. Although porcelain and ceramic are both made in a kiln, porcelain is made with more refined clay and is more durable than ceramic because it is denser. The latter is ideal for statement pieces — your tall mid-century modern ceramic vase is a guaranteed conversation starter. And while your earthenware or stoneware is maybe better suited to everyday lunches as opposed to the fine bone china you’ve reserved for a holiday meal, handcrafted studio pottery coffee mugs can still be a rich expression of your personal style.

“My motto is ‘Have fun with it,’” says author and celebrated hostess Stephanie Booth Shafran. “It’s yin and yang, high and low, Crate Barrel with Christofle silver. I like to mix it up — sometimes in the dining room, sometimes on the kitchen banquette, sometimes in the loggia. It transports your guests and makes them feel more comfortable and relaxed.”

Introduce elegance at supper with silver, such as a platter from celebrated Massachusetts silversmith manufacturer Reed and Barton or a regal copper-finish flatware set designed by International Silver Company, another New England company that was incorporated in Meriden, Connecticut, in 1898. By then, Meriden had already earned the nickname “Silver City” for its position as a major hub of silver manufacturing.

At the bar, try a vintage wine cooler to keep bottles cool before serving or an Art Deco decanter and whiskey set for after-dinner drinks — there are many possibilities and no wrong answers for tableware, barware and serveware. Explore an expansive collection of antique and vintage glass, ceramics, silver and serveware today on 1stDibs.
