Set Of Six Silver-plated Metal Knife Blocks Based On A Design By Benjamin Rabier
A charming set of six silver-plated knife rests, featuring various stylized animals inspired by the graphic style of Benjamin Rabier (1864–1939), the famous French illustrator and animal artist. Each piece is cut out and openwork, humorously and dynamically depicting various animals with expressive silhouettes characteristic of the artist’s style.
Created around 1930, these knife rests reflect the Art Deco era’s taste for refined tableware and animal motifs. Their silver-plated metal construction, combined with the delicacy of the design and the quality of the cutwork, makes this a particularly appealing decorative and functional set.
This rare and whimsical set will appeal to collectors of Benjamin Rabier, antique tableware, and decorative objects from the Art Deco period.
