{2 Can Now Have Breakfast in Bed à la Christofle...}

From France I can offer you now a second Christofle oval napkin ring like I had offered before on August 27: {4 Antique Christofle Napkin Rings for Tray Service or Mixed Set Use}. This time it is even complete with its original box and it looks like it never or seldom has been used. So, why not snuggle up in bed and make your loved one and yourself a yummy breakfast on a tray, for enjoying together. Pillows all plumped up and having a bliss full day. Sorry is sold out...
With the weather getting colder and the days shorter, it makes for lingering in bed on a weekend morning. Prepare a romantic breakfast 'pour deux' with your French Christofle napkin rings...
This very special oval pleated napkin ring looks like new and comes in its original French Christofle box.
These are the markings
This is the one I had posted on August 27 and the markings are the very same, except that it shows also the words Collection Gallia.
Sorry Sold out...
Who knows? These Gallia design napkin rings might have been used at 'le Ritz in Paris' after Christofle did equip this hotel with their fine silver ware in 1898...
Christofle is still selling these high quality silver plated napkin rings. Look at Christofle and type in RECHERCHE: ROND DE SERVIETTE.
Indeed, Christofle is still a symbol of luxury and elegance. Since its founding in the mid-19th century. Today as in the past, it has been gracing the tables of emperors, princes, or maharajas, in palaces, on board the Trans-Siberian Railway, Orient Express, or transatlantic ocean liners, or in contemporary restaurants, Christofle continues to make an impression. This great book is available at Amazon.com.

  10. Liebe Mariette,

    deine Bilder sind nicht nur sehr
    schön, sondern auch besonders
    deutlich.
    Hast du eine so gute Kamera?

  11. Lovely items as always, Mariette.

    As for the lemon tree story and the USDA, definitely laughable. I cannot believe that's what they spend their time doing when there is so much else that needs attention.

    Hope your day is great. Tammy

  12. Liebe Mariette,
    die Serviettenringe sind wunderschön! Wir benutzen nur leider viel zu selten solche, weil oft zu wenig Zeit ist ;-) und meine Männer es da auch eher eilig haben (unnötige Deko *lach*)

    Im Bett habe ich auch noch nie gefrühstückt, außer bei Krankheit mal Zwieback - aber ich liebe auch die Krümel in den Laken nicht ;-)

    Vielen lieben Dank auch noch für das liebe Kompliment zu dem Kuchen von vor kurzem! Ich habe mich sehr darüber gefreut!

    Viele liebe Grüße
    Sara
