This stunning silvered bronze and cut crystal compote was created by Cristofle & Cie, prestigious producers of high-quality objects for more than 150 years. Exhibiting a dramatic Rococo design, the compote is comprised of a cherubic siren bearing the vibrant green, cut-to-clear crystal dish upon his back. Accented with shells and set upon boldly scrolled feet, this magnificent dish is a work of rare beauty. Based in Paris, France, the Christofle production house has been manufacturing high-quality luxury pieces since 1830. Christofle silver has graced the tables of European and Asian nobility for decades, and has been the tableware of choice on such luxury transportation as the Orient Express and the Trans-Siberian Railway. Innovative and revolutionary, the Christofle name is synonymous with elegance and style.

Circa 1880
