Very Fine Italian-French Art Deco Sterling Silver Flatware Set

VERY FINE Italian-French STERLING SILVER FLATWARE SET. 

VERY ELEGANT ART DECO DESIGN. The hallmark of R & C 900, representing a quality not found in today’s silver service. In this time, the service was designed to be set on the table with backs up, thus showing the wonderful detail and design of this truly magnificent set. The set was made in Italy but in the French tradition (probably French design), very nice weight, oversized feeling typical of fine French tableware.
