Lumière d'Argent
$250
Description
Lumière d'Argent Lying Kitten. The Lumière d'Argent collection is composed of 36 pieces created by Christofle between 1987 and 1994 at its Saint-Denis factory. The various animals are embellished with onyx eyes. These pieces were made in Christofle's workshops using a very special technique: one part was cast, while other parts were first worked and detailed on a plate like a pattern, and then shaped to combine with each other to create the chosen animal. This technique explains the variety of attitudes and the greater precision of the details. The different renderings of the lightly incised surfaces are reminiscent of Christofle's early jewellery, which used a metallic fabric technique similar to filigree, patented in 1837
Christofle Vintage Collection pieces 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

Maintenance
In order to preserve the beauty of your VINTAGE piece, we recommend that you maintain it with a Christofle product: the silver flash from time to time and the polishing gloves for regular maintenance. For maintenance with the plishing gloves: take off your jewelry and wipe the glove over the entire piece to restore its shine. For maintenance with the silver flash, refer to the product's instructions. Beforehand, be sure to remove the piece from its antioxidant pouch. This pouch is lined with antioxidant fabric to protect your piece from oxidation.
