Vintage Silvered Glass Coaster Duo
Fermiers Généraux​

$550

Description

These two magnificent coasters were produced by Christofle from 1973. On their surface are fine engravings reproducing the insculpation plates of the Fermiers Généraux. During the reign of Louis XIV, Colbert, Controller General of Finances, decided to better control the production of gold and silverware. To this end, he created the Fermiers Généraux, a group of people in charge of checking objects and affixing different hallmarks according to city and year. These are the hallmarks found on these coasters.

 

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

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.
