Ércuis Antique Silver Coffee & Tea Set
A true example of the era of ‘arts de la table’, this silver argenté tea set is made by the fine silversmith Ércuis.

Known for blending traditional techniques with contemporary design, Ércuis creates pieces that resonate with elegance and sophistication, making them a staple in fine dining and home décor.
The artisans at Ércuis utilize high-quality materials, primarily silver, to forge intricate flatware, serving pieces, and decorative items. Each piece reflects meticulous attention to detail and artistry, with a focus on functionality without compromising aesthetics. Their silverware collections often feature classic motifs, embodying a sense of timeless beauty that complements both formal and casual settings.
Beyond the craftsmanship, Ércuis embraces a rich heritage, often using techniques passed down over generations. Their pieces are not merely utensils but heirlooms imbued with history, making them highly sought after by collectors and dining connoisseurs alike. Whether it's a beautifully crafted fork or a decorative centerpiece, Ércuis silversmiths uphold the essence of French artistry and provide an exquisite touch to any French-inspired farm kitchen or elegant dining experience.
