Description

A whimsical treasure from the French table, this antique silver plate skewer is topped with a finely cast rabbit finial, captured in lifelike detail with soft fur and a watchful gaze. Once used to serve roasts or game, the skewer is a reminder of the refinement of 19th-century dining.

Evoking the charm of a country château feast, it is as delightful to display as it is to use—an enchanting piece for the collector or host who appreciates both beauty and tradition.
