A French sterling silver egg cup with matching spoon, beautifully presented in its original fitted case — a thoughtful and timeless gift. The egg cup is raised on a slender stem with a spreading foot decorated with a slender band, and features a wider foliate decorative band. The matching spoon complements the cup perfectly.
Both pieces are monogrammed "Marthe", lending a personal and sentimental touch. An ideal gift for a namesake, a beloved grandmother, or anyone who appreciates the charm of a traditional breakfast service.
The set is housed in its original presentation box with a cream interior fabric and green leatherette exterior. The box shows age-appropriate wear and the interior shows marks from use, but remains sturdy for showcasing the set.
