Set of 6 Christofle Silver-Plated Dinner Spoons: Chinon Fiddle Pattern, c.1900 French Elegance
This set of six (6) silver-plated dinner spoons by the famed Paris silversmith Christofle.
The spoons are in the classic Chinon / Filets (Fiddle) pattern, introduced in the mid-19th century and hallmarked with the diamond “OC” scales punch and rectangular “CHRISTOFLE” stamp used circa 1890-1930.
Each spoon features a crisp fiddle handle with thread border and a subtle drop-shaped bowl. Silver-plate remains bright with only light, even polish wear—ready for dining or display.
