Skip to product information
This monumental 202-piece sterling silver flatware service was crafted by the legendary Tiffany & Co. in the classic Florentine pattern. This intricate motif was among the firm’s most labor-intensive and costly to create. Every elegant scroll and acanthus leaf is masterfully executed with a depth and richness that is found only in Tiffany's finest creations. Originally designed in 1900, Florentine was only crafted until 1934, adding to the pattern’s scarcity and desirability. Containing 202 total pieces, this incredible service for 12 is truly a once-in-a-lifetime find for this rare Tiffany pattern. The silverware is expertly presented in its accompanying chest.
Florentine is beloved for its intricacy, superior design and rarity. The pattern was designed by premier Tiffany artisan Paulding Farnham, a gifted sculptor who studied the art of silversmithing directly under Edward C. Moore, head designer at Tiffany & Co. from 1868 to 1891. His talent is evident in the Florentine pattern, which exhibits not only incredibly deep and rich chasing but also magnificent proportions. Farnham was responsible for Tiffany’s most elaborate works during his tenure and was called upon to create such important commissions as the Admiral Dewey presentation sword and the famed Adams Gold Vase housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
The silver flatware of Tiffany & Co. is among the finest in the world. Each hand-finished piece incorporates the timeless designs and quality craftsmanship that make Tiffany one of the world's leading silversmiths. Since their first international recognition at the 1867 Paris World's Fair, Tiffany has supplied silver to numerous royal families throughout Europe, as well as elite American families including the Astors and Vanderbilts.
