Designed to protect surfaces, these silver-plated coasters enhance the table with brilliance while echoing the rosace motif of the Malmaison collection.
Inspired by the Empire style, the Malmaison collection is one of Christofle’s most iconic designs. Its distinctive palm and lotus motifs, drawn from classical antiquity, reflect a refined balance of symmetry, elegance, and architectural purity. A timeless expression of French decorative arts, Malmaison embodies the Maison’s exceptional silversmithing expertise and continues to bring understated grandeur to the table.
The “Château de Malmaison” near Paris was the favorite residence of Napoleon Bonaparte and Empress Josephine. The palm and lotus leaf frieze and the symmetry of the decoration are typical of the Empire style, which was largely inspired by Antiquity.
