Elegant and restrained French silver-plated flatware set attributed to François Frionnet, a respected French silversmith known for the quality of his workmanship and the purity of his designs.
This complete ensemble embodies the essence of French classical tableware: balanced proportions, clean lines, and a discreetly shaped handle inspired by the Louis XVI tradition, reinterpreted in a sober 20th-century spirit.
Neither ornate nor austere, this set was designed to endure — visually, materially, and culturally.
Composition – 60 Pieces
12 table forks
12 table knives
12 tablespoons
12 large dinner knives
12 teaspoons
The knives are preserved in their original presentation case, adding authenticity and historical continuity to the ensemble.

Elegant engraved monogram on handles
The substantial silver plating ensures durability and a refined patina over time, making this set suitable for both daily use and formal dining.
