Puiforcat French Sterling Silver Platter Tray in Art Deco Style from Early 20th Century

Emile Puiforcat, French 0.950 (higher purity than sterling) silver platter tray in Art Deco style, from the early 20th century, in a geometrically inspired design.

Founded in 1820 by Emile Puiforcat, the Parisian family workshop has passed down its renowned silverwork mastery from one generation to the next. It was the visionary leadership and artistic talent of Jean E. Puiforcat, the fourth generation in the workshop, that truly brought the world’s attention to Puiforcat; his design legacy was a significant contribution to the studio, and in turn a major contribution to the international Art Déco movement of his time.
