French tea service set of elegant and balanced aesthetics, typical of the transition between the late Art Nouveau style and the first echoes of Art Deco. Its design combines the softness of curved lines with a sober and refined ornamentation.

The decorative details, such as the garlands of small pearls or grapes around the rims, the reliefs with shell motifs and the finely carved legs, evoke a neoclassical reinterpretation that was frequent in French goldsmithing at the time. The polished finish of the silver, of great brilliance, accentuates the formal purity.

The service conveys sophistication and balance between ornamentation and functionality, representing a transitional style between the decorative exuberance of the 19th century and the geometric and refined elegance of the 20th century.
