These are knife rests by Christofle, the French silversmith, in the “Gorge” pattern. Each is stamped “CHRISTOFLE” and “FRANCE’ on the side of the base, alongside the house's chess-knight "OC" mark, which has been used since 1935.
The design is understated and architectural. Each rest is a smooth oblong with rounded ends and a stepped, moulded edge that gives it a layered profile. The top is gently dished with a bright, mirror-like finish. The underside is open, with concentric stepped ridges.
They keep a clean knife off the tablecloth between courses. They also work as chopstick rests, or as a small tray for a pen or teaspoon. Laid out in a row they look quite graphic.
Sold as a set of six at HK$2,000 per set or set of 12 at HK$3800 per set
