As Christofle's head of design, Luc Lanel was one of the leading figures of Art Deco in French silverware; he is known in particular for the America and Atlas flatware patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design is remarkably restrained, typical of 1930s Art Deco. The round, smooth body with a mirror polish is highlighted below the rim by a band of parallel reeding. The two solid round handles repeat this decoration in concentric reeding. The slightly conical lid is edged with the same reeding and topped by a ringed spool-shaped finial crowned with a reeded disc. The finial is screwed on, with its nut visible inside the lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piece is signed CHRISTOFLE under the base and bears the hallmark with the chess knight and the letters OC, used by Christofle from 1935. The absence of the number I or II, added to this hallmark from 1983, places its manufacture between these two dates. The numbers 3 and 0 are also struck in two squares. The marks are visible in the photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails:\u003cbr\u003e• House: Christofle\u003cbr\u003e• Designer: Luc Lanel\u003cbr\u003e• Style: Art Deco\u003cbr\u003e• Type: Vegetable dish with lid\u003cbr\u003e• Material: Silver-plate\u003cbr\u003e• Period: between 1935 and 1983\u003cbr\u003e• Origin: France\u003cbr\u003e• Width including handles: 27 cm\u003cbr\u003e• Diameter: 20.5 cm\u003cbr\u003e• Height of the bowl: 7 cm\u003cbr\u003e• Overall height including finial: 12 cm\u003cbr\u003e• Marking: Christofle, knight and OC hallmark, numbers 3 and 0\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: pre-owned piece in good overall condition; this is not a new item.
