Antique French Puiforcat Sterling Silver Napkin Ring, Guilloche Style, Bow & Ribbon Medallion
Fine antique French Puiforcat sterling silver 1 3/4" napkin ring, 95% pure silver with ornate guilloche style machined or engraved decoration including bow & ribbon topped medallion sans monogram! This one bears the French Minerve or Minerva hallmark, 1st quality for .950 silver content (the tiny number "1" within the mark designates 95% pure and so higher than the .925 standard for sterling silver). The silversmith mark is, of course, for the world renowned Maison Puiforcat (EP, Emile Puiforcat), maker to royalty, long lauded for only the finest of finery and now owned by Hermes of Paris. YES, a single here but one of several superb antique and vintage sterling silver napkin rings that we're adding today (and in the weeks ahead) so be sure to browse our current offerings to build a collection fit for royalty :). We’ve amassed over 100 great old mostly French sterling napkin rings over the years and I’m working on them now. They're great mixed & matched around your table, wonde
