Elegance and tradition come together in this exquisite milk and sugar set from the renowned Bremen silver manufacturer Wilkens & Söhne. Manufactured between the 1920s and 1930s, this set in 835/- silver reflects not only craftsmanship but also timeless beauty.
The set consists of three pieces: a milk jug and a sugar bowl, both resting carefully on ball feet that provide a stable yet aesthetic base. The semicircular bowls feature a finely gadrooned surface that refracts the light in a fascinating way and emphasises the sophistication of the set. The wavy rim adds an additional, subtle elegance and makes each piece an eye-catcher.
Particularly noteworthy is the milk jug with its distinctive volute handle, which not only provides comfort when pouring, but is also an artistic design element. This fine craftsmanship demonstrates the extraordinary skill of the silversmiths at Wilkens & Söhne.
The ensemble is complemented by an oval tray, also with a wavy edge, which perfectly matches the overall look. The tray not only provides space for the milk and sugar set, but also for other coffee table accessories and contributes significantly to the stylish presentation.
This set, in the recognised Chippendale style, embodies an era in which elegance and precision craftsmanship were paramount. It has been completely refurbished to restore its original beauty and functionality and is now a stylish highlight on any coffee table.
