This set is composed of 2 Villeroy napkin rings. The Villeroy Birth Collection was created in 1957. The pieces in this range are decorated with a frieze composed of two intertwined lines with a rosette plant in the centre.
The napkin ring appeared in France in the 19th century. It became inevitable to identify the owner of the napkin, which became individual. Elegant and refined, the napkin ring became over time a real social marker of belonging to a circle. The expression "to have one's napkin ring there" means to have one's own entrance somewhere.
The pieces in the Christofle Vintage Collection are second-hand pieces selected and authenticated by Christofle. They are pieces in good condition and restored in our workshops in Yainville (Normandy)... More information
