Christofle ice cream spoon, Baguette model (Fidelio) silver-plated metal.

Christofle ice spoon in silver-plated metal, pierced scoop and handle in the Baguette pattern, ancestor of the Fidelio line. Length 21 cm. The back of the scoop bears the hallmark with the name CHRISTOFLE, a cartouche mark, and the square hallmark with the horseman between the letters O and C. According to the marking system described by Christofle, this horseman has been applied to silver-plated metal since 1935 to guarantee the thickness of the silver deposited. The quality Roman numeral added from 1983 does not appear here, which likely places the manufacturing before this date. Very good vintage condition.
