This silver-plated steak knife, part of the Marly collection, is ideal for cutting meats and is placed to the right of the dinner plate.
Created in 1897, the Marly collection is one of Christofle’s most ornate patterns, inspired by the Château de Marly built for Louis XIV. Its finely chased Rocaille decoration, with asymmetrical foliage and shell motifs, reflects the richness of 18th-century French decorative arts and showcases the Maison’s exceptional silversmithing expertise.


Having become famous, Maison Christofle was solicited by foreign sovereigns such as Emperor Maximilian of Mexico, the Tsar of Russia, Germany of the Kaiser, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Sultan Abdulaziz of the Ottoman Empire.
