Service tongs "Pelican" GULDEN – silver-plated – modernist design

Very beautiful GULDEN service tongs in silver-plated metal, with a sculptural and fluid design typical of the modernism of the 1940s-60s. This model, known as the “Pelican, ” recognisable by its enveloping shape, was used in hospitality for serving delicate dishes (asparagus, vegetables, buffet). The clean and ergonomic line makes it today a piece on the border between a utilitarian object and a design object. • Brand: GULDEN (silversmithing from Alsace) • Material: silver-plated metal. • Era: mid-20th century. • Condition: good condition, consistent signs of use. An authentic piece, perfect for: → a refined table. → a vintage kitchen. → a collection of tableware arts.
