Français Arabe Service à Thé Et Café Art Déco En Métal Argenté, Ravinet D’enfert, Vers 1925

elegant silver-plated tea and coffee service by Ravinet d’Enfert, emblematic of the refined Art Deco style of the 1920s.

This high-quality set comprises five pieces:

- an oval tray with a black wooden handle, 63 cm long with the handle, 47 cm without, 36 cm wide at the maximum, 24 cm near the handles

- a teapot, 4 cups, 15.5 cm high, 25 cm wide

- a coffee pot, 4 cups, 18 cm high (plus 2 cm with the handle), 23 cm wide from spout to handle

- a covered sugar bowl, 10 cm high, 17 cm wide

- a milk jug, 10.5 cm high, 15 cm wide

The geometric lines, subtly striated corners, and ebony handles perfectly illustrate the modernist aesthetic characteristic of the Art Deco period. In excellent condition, without dents or deformations, with beautiful silver plating.

There are a few small oxidation spots on the tray.
Each piece bears the Ravinet Denfert signature on the base. Founded in 1882 in the heart of the Marais district in Paris by Louis Ravinet and Charles d’Enfert, the Ravinet d’Enfert company remains a major name in French silversmithing.
