Silver and Icon

Top Lots
This department deals with selecting collectors' silverware, icons but also more contemporary silverware, suitable for embellishing and illuminating any type of environment. In recent years, silverware has come back into fashion, and the intrinsic value of this precious material, which is constantly on the rise, constitutes an important added value and, why not, an alternative investment. Each lot included in Maison Bibelot auctions is always accompanied by an accurate and exhaustive file in which particular attention is paid, in this case, to bibliographic research of the punches in order to provide its customers with complete and accurate information.
The Department organises several thematic auctions each year and complements the Antiques auctions.
The Department carries out valuations for hereditary divisions and for insurance purposes.
