Western Europe, France, ca. late 20th to 21st century CE. This collection features 69 pieces of sterling silver-plated flatware and cutlery from the renowned French Chambly Arlequin Silver Tableware, a perfect addition for collectors and those seeking quality craftsmanship. The plating is 33 microns, a relatively thick and durable coating designed to ensure a long-lasting finish that resists wear and tarnish over time. This level of plating is considered high-quality, especially compared to thinner coatings, and is commonly found in premium cutlery. There are 12 place settings, each consisting of 5 pieces (2 table forks, 1 tablespoon, 1 dessert spoon, and 1 butter knife), plus 9 serving utensils. The total number of each piece is as follows: 24 table forks, 12 dessert spoons, 12 tablespoons, 12 butter knives, 1 carving knife, 4 large serving spoons, 1 carving fork, 1 pastry or fish fork, 1 salad serving fork, and 1 pie knife.
