24-Piece Silver-Plated Flatware Set with Shell — Carrousel

This exceptional case, a standalone object defined by a bi-colour surface , is like a door to a secret room. The interior reveals a walnut tableau that holds the full silver-plated set (6 dinner forks, 6 dinner knifes, 6 table spoons and 6 dessert spoons) stored upright along an ingenious system of pegs, inspired by the planar forms of Jean Arp. Beyond its artistic strength and technical prowess, the drop – the openwork part – of the cutlery becomes functional, allowing it to find its place within the case like a piece of kinetic sculpture. The opening creates a cinematic effect , akin to a rotating carousel and as precise as a clockwork mechanism. The object transcends its function: it displays, protects, and elevates. With Carrousel, Charlotte Chesnais reimagines cutlery: functional, but above all timeless. Designed like a piece of jewelry, each item lives in rhythm with those who use it. The collection is the perfect alignment of two identities in metalsmithing: jewelry and tableware. Aesthetic, conceptual, sculptural and a work of art, the Carrousel case perfectly embodies both universe of Charlotte Chesnais and Christofle.
