About the Item

French Art Deco Tea Coffee Service by Roux-Marquiand, Lyon, 1924 – Gold Medal, Paris 1925 Exceptional French Art Deco tea and coffee service designed and produced by Roux-Marquiand (Lyon, France) in 1924, a landmark model awarded the Gold Medal at the Salon des Arts Décoratifs, Paris, 1925. Crafted in silver-plated metal combined with noble woods, this sculptural service perfectly embodies the elegance, modernity, and refined craftsmanship of early French Art Deco. The set is composed of four original pieces, each bearing the Roux-Marquiand stamp. Historically, this model was issued without a tray; the tray presented here has been later added and was carefully selected for its harmonious proportions and aesthetic compatibility with the ensemble. Set Includes (4 original pieces): Teapot: Height 6.3 in (16 cm) – Width 8.7 in (22 cm) Coffee Pot: Height 7.5 in (19 cm) – Width 8.1 in (20.5 cm) Sugar Bowl: Height 5.1 in (13 cm) – Width 5.7 in (14.5 cm) Creamer: Height 3.9 in (10 cm) – Width 5.6 in (14.2 cm) Tray (later addition): Outer Diameter: 18.2 in (46.3 cm) Height: 1.6 in (4 cm) Condition: Service: Excellent condition Tray: Very good condition Marks: Each original piece stamped Roux-Marquiand Origin: Lyon, France – 7 rue Centrale This museum-quality tea and coffee service is a documented example of French decorative arts excellence, directly linked to the 1925 Paris International Exhibition, the defining event of the Art Deco movement. A rare and highly collectible set, ideal for discerning collectors of French Art Deco silver, luxury tableware, and 20th-century design. About Roux-Marquiand (Lyon, France) Founded in 1876 in Lyon by artisans Chapuis and Marquiand, the firm became Roux-Marquiand in 1877 following a family marriage. The company remained family-owned until the 1960s and developed into one of France’s most important silver-plated metal workshops. After World War I, the company—remarkably directed by a widowed woman—maintained a high-level production supported by skilled craftsmen. With up to 100 specialized workers, Roux-Marquiand distinguished itself by focusing exclusively on silverplate, positioning itself as a refined alternative to the dominance of Christofle. All stages of production were carried out in-house, including carving, polishing, silvering, fitting, assembly, and restoration, with burnishing often performed by women artisans. In the early 1920s, Roux-Marquiand achieved major success with Neo-Classical designs, before fully embracing Art Deco. At the 1925 Paris International Exhibition, the firm presented a tea and coffee service—this very model—that received a Gold Medal, confirming its national and international reputation. The company subsequently supplied leading Parisian department stores such as Galeries Lafayette, Le Printemps (Primavera), and Trois Quartiers. Designs were also featured anonymously through La Maîtrise, the Galeries Lafayette design studio led by Maurice Dufrêne. In 1929, Georges Roux-Marquiand joined the firm, later opening a Paris office on rue Saintonge and expanding exports to North Africa, Indochina, and the Middle East. After World War II, the company increased European exports and, in the 1960s, collaborated on designs for Hermès. Until its closure in 2006, Roux-Marquiand worked with over twenty designers, producing more than 2,000 models, often custom-made for luxury restaurants, hotels, embassies, ocean liners, and prestigious private clients. Notable patrons included Bernard Loiseau, Lucas Carton, and The Ritz Paris, as well as the French Presidency. Today, Roux-Marquiand is recognized as a key contributor to French Art Deco silver design, with works held in important private collections and highly sought after on the international market.
