The Perles pattern has been part of Christofle's core flatware range for well over a century, making pieces such as this one consistently sought after by collectors and tableware enthusiasts in both Europe and North America.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ladle features a deep, rounded bowl with a smooth, highly polished interior surface. The exterior of the bowl has a stepped rim, providing visual weight and a sense of proportion. Running along both edges of the handle is the characteristic beaded border that defines the Perles pattern — a continuous row of small, evenly spaced raised dots forming a clean double-bead line from tip to shoulder. The handle terminates in a gently tapered, rounded spatula end, consistent with classic Christofle flatware design. The back of the bowl carries the Christofle maker's mark, clearly stamped and legible in the close-up photos: a cross-shaped hallmark above the word CHRISTOFLE, which is the standard silver-plate guarantee mark used by the house. The silver plating shows use-related surface scratching consistent with age, particularly visible on the bowl interior and handle face, as expected for a piece of this vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ladle measures approximately 24cm in length (9.4\"), as stated by the seller. The bowl diameter is estimated at approximately 6.5cm (2.6\") based on proportional analysis of the photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA practical and collectible piece, this ladle works well as part of a Christofle Perles flatware service or as a standalone display item for those who collect French silver plate from established manufactures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e95% of my items are tariff-free to the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-optimised --\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-shopify --\u003e","brand":"Christofle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57810471977304,"sku":"227448243331_39A5","price":104.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/5776\/2392\/files\/57_8a68cebe-60a6-4e5b-a96e-7bfa6e078622.jpg?v=1785060514","url":"https:\/\/fleamarketfrance.com\/products\/christofle-pearl-silver-plated-ladle-2607264","provider":"Fleamarketfrance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
