Christofle Samovar Or Water Dispenser, Guilloché Pattern
Artist: Christofle
Samovar, water dispenser, or kettle made of silver-plated metal from the prestigious French silverware house Christofle.
This remarkable model is distinguished by its guilloché decoration.
The surface of the kettle’s body and lid is finely engraved with geometric, closely spaced parallel lines (the guilloché effect), creating a superb texture and a subtle interplay with light.
A smooth medallion, adorned with scrolls, is featured on the side, traditionally intended for engraving a coat of arms or initials.
The kettle rests on a hinged stand that allows it to be tilted to pour hot water without having to lift the entire unit, while leaving enough space to accommodate a freestanding alcohol burner in its center.
A fixed handle fitted with heat-insulating rings to facilitate handling of the entire unit
