Christofle Boréal Silverplate Flatware Canteen : Exceptional 128-Piece Complete Set in Chest

This exceptional Christofle flatware canteen includes 128 pieces from the refined "Boréal" model, celebrated for its modern yet timeless silhouette. The design is characterized by softly contoured handles and a minimalist elegance that suits both formal and contemporary table settings. Crafted in silverplate by Christofle, one of France’s most esteemed maisons d’orfèvrerie, this collection offers a full service for twelve or more guests, along with an extensive selection of serving utensils, ranging from soup ladles and carving forks to fish servers and pastry spoons. The pieces are stored in a green leatherette case with three felt-lined trays, each fitted with compartments to organize and protect the cutlery.

Historically, families assembled their canteens over time, acquiring utensils gradually and often purchasing the fitted box later. As a result, not every piece fits its compartment with precision, a detail that reflects the authentic evolution of such sets. Founded in 1830, Christofle revolutionized the art of tableware by mastering the technique of silver electroplating. The brand quickly became a favorite of European aristocracy and was commissioned by the French imperial court, as well as luxury hotels and cruise liners worldwide. Christofle is synonymous with exquisite craftsmanship, innovation, and enduring elegance. This flatware canteen is a testament to that legacy, a collector’s piece designed to elevate any dining experience with grace and distinction.
