Puiforcat: Six Table Knives And Six Fruit Knives, Steel And Silver In Empire Style.
Artist: Puiforcat
Superb set of twelve Empire-style knives by Puiforcat.
The six dessert knives have silver blades, and the six dinner knives have steel blades.
The silver bolsters and ferrules are decorated with laurel wreaths and swans with outstretched wings.
The knives are presented in a case that is not original but is nonetheless practical.
The silver blades are hallmarked:
Minerva 1st standard (pre-1973) for 950/1000 silver
Maker's mark: EP with a penknife for the Puiforcat company
The ferrules are not hallmarked but have been tested with a touchstone.
A superb set of twelve knives for six guests, one of the finest Puiforcat Empire-style models.
Table knives:
25 cm long
309 grams for six
Fruit knives:
20 cm long
195 grams for six
The handles are split, discreetly on the dessert knives, more extensively on the table knives, without affecting the blades' stability. Very slight oxidation of the steel blades.
Collection in Paris or shipping via insured Colissimo.
France: €15
Europe: €20
Rest of the world: €35
