Small Saucepan Restaurant Lasserre Paris Silver Metal

Small saucepan called "flaming" in silver metal with its pivoting lid on rivet and bearing the coat of arms of the famous Parisian starred restaurant Lasserre. The bottom of the saucepan is marked with the Restaurant Lasserre 17 av. Franklin Roosevelt Paris 8th as well as the Potfer silverware and is numbered "8". This saucepan is in very good condition and has clearly been used very little or not at all. It is 9 cm in diameter and 5 cm high. What is the story of this charming little saucepan? In 1948, the Club de la Casserole was created and the success of its galas allowed René Lasserre to innovate and undertake major works. The Club was a formidable vector for events. Politicians, artists or movie stars, Lasserre brought all of Paris running. These limited production saucepans were exclusively given to privileged customers such as personalities or great gastronomes. They bear witness to the tradition and prestige of the Lasserre restaurant, a Parisian institution for many years.
