Extremely rare modernist, high class silverplated art deco tea service manufactured by Delavan, a french interior designer of the 1930s.
This remarkable set - comprising tea pot, sugar bowl, creamer/milk jug is a stunning and probably one of the finest set that we have had the privilege to offer.
It is notable not just for the quality of its design - which displays both Art Deco and Streamline influences - but also for the quality of its manufacture. For many, French metalwork reached its pinnacle during the Art Deco period, with manufacturers and designers such as Puiforcat, Christofle and Desny producing pieces which showed great invention and superb workmanship.
This set is in extremely good shape and seems to have been hardly used.
A sure to be an important addition to any Art Deco or Streamline tableware or metalware collection.
