Christofle Mid-20th Century Silverplate Sauce Boat w/ Laurel Wreath Motif

This elegant silverplate sauceboat and tray set was crafted by Christofle, the prestigious Parisian silversmith renowned for timeless French tableware. The underside bears the Christofle hallmark and model number, confirming its authenticity and origin.

Anchored to an integrated oval tray, the sauceboat features graceful, flowing lines with a slightly flared spout and a braided loop handle at the back. The side is adorned with a finely modeled laurel and ribbon motif, lending a neoclassical air to its refined silhouette. A beaded border along the base and tray rim enhances the piece's sense of balance and proportion.  The fixed tray design not only adds visual harmony but also offers practicality at the table, catching drips and ensuring clean presentation.

Both decorative and useful, this piece would bring a polished touch to traditional or contemporary dining settings alike, whether used for serving gravies and sauces, or as a striking tabletop accent when not in use.
