This stylish French modernist silver plate and crystal caviar serving bowl, dish, or chiller was designed by silversmith Christofle in the 1950s for its Fleuron Collection. 
This set features a two-handled, rounded outer crystal ice bowl container decorated with a minimalist silver plate trim chic design and a suspended all-crystal caviar bowl insert. Please pay attention to the measurements: the chiller set is a large-capacity serving piece that can accommodate a large party gathering. The large bowl has engraved the Fleuron legal silversmith hallmarks.

Note: Christofle is a manufacturer of fine silver flatware and home accessories located in France. It was founded in 1830 when jeweler Charles Christofle assumed management of a jewelry workshop belonging to his wife's family. Among Christofle's product lines are silver picture frames, crystal vases and glassware, porcelain dinnerware, and silver jewelry and holloware.
Christofle has solicited the services of numerous artists and designers to produce unique creations. The Parisian goldsmith Antoine Perrin, Man Ray, Jean Cocteau, Gio Ponti, Andrée Putman, Martin Szekely, Ito Morabito (Ora-Ito), Xiao Hui Wang, and Richard Hutten are among these artists. 
In 1951, the Christofle company agreed with Ernest Cardeilhac to purchase the Cardeilhac tools and patterns. During the First Empire, Antoine Cardeilhac was a well-known silversmith in Paris. 
Christofle remains under the control and ownership of the Christofle family. Maurizio Borletti represents the current generation. Christofle was listed on the stock exchange until 1998 when Borletti took the company private.
Christofle manufactures its products in France and Brazil, and they are sold worldwide through 75 Pavillon Christofle retail stores and also through 400 department stores and specialty shops.
