Historic jewelry houses such as Cartier often leveraged their expertise with precious materials to create luxurious objects for everyday living. Consisting of a teapot, coffeepot, creamer, sugar bowl, waste bowl, and large tray, this set is exceptional for drawing upon Scandinavian design, influential in both Europe and the US during the 1950s and the ’60s. The unadorned surface accentuates the fluid form of each vessel, while the dramatic curvature of the handles and the striking contrast between brilliant silver and darkened wood add a sense of dynamism.
