This silver plated serving spoon in the Marly pattern is ideal for serving meat and vegetables. Serving utensils are sized to the collection's platters so they do not fall into the food. Marly, named after a no-longer-standing pleasure palace built by Louis XIV outside Paris, has been one of the most detailed and ornate patterns in the Christofle's catalog since it was created in 1897. The fine chasing is an exquisite example of Rocaille with its asymmetrical crawling plant and shell motifs.
