{11 Vintage French Christofle Luc Lanel 'Ondulation' Knife Rests}

From France I bring you these vintage Christofle knife rests in a pleated pattern, as a set of eleven. No box available this time but they are in very good condition, considering their age. This is designed by Luc Lanel in the 1930s and is called 'Ondulation'. Look at: Christie's LUC LANEL (1893-1965) at Luc Lanel's 'Ondulation' champagne coolers with an ice pail, sold at Christie's. These rare 1930s Art Deco knife rests are available at my Zen Cart powered on line boutique: Mariette's Back to Basics.

They are perfect for keeping your precious table linens from getting soiled. An ideal wedding gift that will become a treasured family heirloom. Please do also see my previous post about 6 Antique French Christofle Coquille Knife Rests in Box as well as 6 Antique French Christofle Gallia Knife Rests -- in Art Deco ← click on the hyperlinks to find out more.

The place mat is Le Jacquard Français in a damask rose pattern. The flatware is Gero Zilmeta 528 Menuet and the china is English Rose from Royal Doulton. just click the hyperlinks.
Without flash gives the best natural color, the previous photo was taken with flash light...
O + Chess Knight + C and Christofle hallmark as you can see more in detail below and on the following website, click  ASCAS and scroll down to 10.
On page 73 and 74 of the book Christofle (Memoire) by David Rosenberg (Hardcover - Jun 15, 2006) you can read the following information:
1860: In France a law is passed requiring hallmarks for pieces of silver plate.
1883: Christofle outfits the Orient Express.
1935: Christofle creates a 45,000 piece service for te Normandie ocean liner. On page 77 you see the photo description about The Normandie ocean liner with mention of Transat champagne bucket, first class section of the Normandie, Luc Lanel for Christofle, 1933.
Indeed, Christofle is a symbol of luxury and elegance...
Sorry Sold out...

  7. Bedankt voor je felicitatie met Iris verjaardag. Ja, het was voor de dames laat in de nacht geworden. En mama en papa moesten 's morgens vroeg uit bed. Ik moest werken en John de koeien melken van de buren...

    Ja, jullie hebben luxe met de openingstijden van de winkels. Hier was het nog erger dan in NL met de openingstijden. Tot dec. waren de winkels maandag t/m vrijdag open van 9.00 tot 18.00 uur en zaterdag van 9.00 tot 15.00 uur. Nu zijn ze tot 20.00uur open, maar wij wonen ook in een dorp!

    Het bestek is prachtig. Zou hier goed passen. Want ze dekken hier altijd heel feestelijk de tafels als er feest is.

    Groetjes Sandy

  9. Oh, dit is werkelijk prachtig, Mariette. Het rose, het motiefje, de bloempjes. Heel elegant!
    Het eten smaakt zo veel lekkerder wanneer gegeten aan een mooi gedekte tafel met prachtig servies.
    Schijnt de zon bij jou ook? Het is volop lente hier, ik vrees alleen wel dat het van korte duur zal zijn.
    Ik vond je berichtje over de nougat op de kermis heel leuk, heel herkenbaar vooral ook.
    Liefs xxxxx

  11. Hello Mariette...I don't find an email address for you. Wanted to thank you for stopping by my blog and commenting.

    Regarding "hiding" the tea cup from my husband, the reason for that is he doesn't really like me buying more "stuff." I certainly don't need another blessed thing. ha! But that cup was so darned pretty. He honestly wouldn't have minded but why upset the apple cart? Take care and have a great day, Mariette. Always love having you you stop by. Susan
