Malmaison accessories
The Malmaison collection from Christofle is a range of silverware, porcelain, and table accessories inspired by the Napoleonic Empire style. This collection, which has been one of Christofle's bestsellers since its introduction in 1967, features clear lines, perfect symmetries, and historical motifs that bring a sense of majestic luxury to classically furnished interiors. When paired with modern minimalist designs, the detailed ornaments of the Malmaison collection showcase its historical radiance and create a connection between the past and the present.
The Malmaison collection is a luxurious choice for formal occasions and sophisticated interior design styles and includes silver plated cutlery, table accessories, home accessories, bar accessories, and centrepieces. The motifs of the collection, including the anthemion, the palmette, and the eagle, are inspired by the Empire style, which combines elements of Classicism with motifs from Greek and Roman antiquity and imperial symbolism.
The collection is named after the Château de la Malmaison, the country residence of Joséphine de Beauharnais, the first wife of Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, and is a tribute to the Empire style that she and Napoleon helped to create.
