A lovely set of salt cellars by Emile Puiforcat in the original fitted case. All eight silver pieces bearing his touchmark and the French Minerva 1 stamp. All eight with matching monogram “A” and either a “J” or an “S”. Very good to excellent condition. Silver cellars are free of dents or cracks and retain bright gold wash interiors. Crystal liners with polished bases near perfect with two having one spot with a tiny frit on the rim, nearly invisible, but you can feel them when you run your finger over them. Spoons free of dents or bending but with fading to the gold wash bowls. Leather clad fitted case with fully functioning clasp has light signs of age and polish stains.
