Malmaison Test

Created by Christofle studio in 1967, Malmaison is "The" ultimate Empire cutlery model. It is named after the castle which was the favorite vacation spot for Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte and Empress Josephine. Its ornaments - water leaves, openwork lotus flower - and the symmetrical structure of the decor are typical of the Empire style. Absolutely chic, the Malmaison collection gives its statutory imprint to the table and to all the moments that live there. It is widely available, from the individual butter dish to the ice cream bowl and the presentation plate in silver metal to the baguette holder and the caviar service, including a set of cutlery for 6 people in sterling silver.

The Malmaison Château

The name of the Malmaison Collection comes from the Château de Malmaison (Castle of Malmaison). This castle, situated in Rueil-Malmaison close to Paris, has been built in 1364 and purchased by Joséphine de Beauharnais in 1799. Joséphine occupied the castle until her death in 1814.

Joséphine de Beauharnais, also known as Joséphine Bonaparte, Empress of the French, was the first wife of Napoléon Bonaparte, Emperor between 1804 and 1815.
