Cardeilhac -

Founded 1804

Maison Cardeilhac was founded by Antoine-Vital Cardeilhac in 1804 inParis and specialized in silver cutlery and table ware.

During the 19th century the firm was handed down from father to son, Armand-Edouard, and continued to produce, with great success, pieces which were largely inspired by wrought iron originals with a rich and finely executed ornamentation. Their work is particularly known for their chasing.

Maison Cardeilhac exhibited at national and international exhibitions and received many awards.

Grandson Ernest introduced gold and silversmithing to the firm. He interned at Harleux and won a silver medal at the 1889 Exposition Universelle. Ernest Cardeilhac was the president of the jury for the cutlery section at the Exposition Universelle Internationale of 1900, and examples of the work of Cardeilhac were displayed at the Musee D'Orsay. The firm also exhibited gold and silver pieces done in collaboration with Lucien Bonvallet at the 1900 exposition.
After more than a century of masterful success, the company was acquired by Christofle.
