This stunning vintage set was discovered by us in a villa along the Lazio coast, in the seaside town of Anzio, just outside of Rome. The design playfully nods to the Chinese Chippendale style, reinterpreting the classic bamboo motif—so iconic in Eastern decorative arts—through the use of luxurious solid brass, a semi-precious material that adds both weight and character. This extensive 12-person flatware service includes 36 pieces, thoughtfully divided as follows: 12 dessert or fruit forks 12 fruit or dessert knives 12 dessert spoons Perfect for setting a sophisticated breakfast table or creating a more playful, eclectic dining experience by mixing patterns, table linens, and glassware. This set strikes a balance between elegance and fun, making it a standout choice for both formal and informal entertaining. The flatware is in good vintage condition and appears to have seen very little use. See less
