Empire cutlery in finely chiseled vermeiled silver including a spoon, a fork, a knife and a small spoon, Vieillard hallmark (2nd title Paris 1819-1838), Grosse Garantie hallmark of Paris and rare hallmark of the goldsmith Vital Antoine Cardeilhac* on the blade of the knife, in a red embossed leather box, from the Restoration period at the beginning of the 19th century.
These items are in good condition, superb quality. The blade of the knife is hallmarked by the goldsmith Vital Antoine Cardeilhac, founder of the prestigious Cardeilhac house from 1804, located at 4 rue du Roule (VC, a crowned cross of the Legion of Honor and a crescent below) . The goldsmith's hallmarks are different for the other elements (unidentified).
The decorations of the handle of the little spoon are not strictly identical to those of the 3 other elements (Paris Average Guarantee hallmark and different title hallmark, hard to see).
