This set is composed of 6 Arceaux knife holders. The knife-holder, Arceau model was created by Maison Christofle, in 1937, under the artistic direction of Luc Lanel. This piece with strictly geometric lines is emblematic of the Art Deco style of the interwar period. This artistic movement owes its name to the 1925 International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts in Paris, at which Christofle had a pavilion. It celebrates the geometrisation and stylisation of forms, thus advocating a refined and very modern style at the end of the Art Nouveau era.
This emblematic piece of the Maison Christofle has strongly participated in the rise of Art Deco in the heart of homes.
