Overview
Tongs, silver plated, France, early 20th century, length 15 cm
This elegant pair of silver-plated tongs from early 20th-century France is a refined addition to any well-appointed tea or cocktail service. Measuring approximately 15 cm in length, they are slightly larger than typical sugar tongs, making them not only beautiful but also highly practical.
The handles are richly decorated in a flowing Rococo floral motif — delicate yet full of movement — and the gripping ends are cast in the form of lion paws, lending the piece a regal touch. The silver has developed a soft vintage patina that enhances its charm without diminishing its brilliance. Perfect for serving sugar cubes, small pastries, or hors d’oeuvres, these tongs are versatile and will elevate both daily use and festive occasions.
A fine example of French craftsmanship, this piece is in lovely vintage condition with only gentle signs of age. A collectible item with true decorative and functional value — especially at this price.
