An exquisite silver cutlery set for 24 persons, created at the end of the 19th century in the workshop of the famous jewellers Bruckmann & Söhne, is a wonderful example of the craftsmanship of German jewellers.

All items in the set are decorated with profiled conical handles, decorated with fine engraving, topped with voluminous seashells on both sides. The edges of the devices are emphasized by an elegant line along the contour, which gives them a special elegant look. The cabinet for storing the set is made of mahogany in the style of late classicism. Its base rests on massive spherical legs, from which conical columns rise, supporting the upper part of the structure. The upper part of the cabinet consists of two doors, topped with a cornice with decorative balusters. The cabinet has seven pull-out shelves, each of which contains separate compartments upholstered with velvet fabric for cutlery. On the cornice is a silver plaque with an engraved inscription: To Mr. Waldemar von Dippel, indicating the noble origin of the owner of the set. Hallmarks on the silver objects include: Crescent moon, crown, German 800 assay value, model number No. 0341891 and the manufacturer`s mark - P. Bruckmann & Söhne, retailer`s mark G. Winterhalter.
