Tulipe is an exceptionally refined Art Nouveau pattern produced by Charles Boulenger Cie. Featuring graceful flowing tulip blossoms, floral, and foliate motifs, this elegant design was exhibited at the prestigious 1903 Beaux-Arts Exhibition in Paris.
Its superior craftsmanship is further reflected in its 950 silver composition, which contains a higher silver content than standard 925 sterling silver, making it especially desirable. Many of the serving pieces showcase intricate openwork (piercing) and beautifully detailed serving areas, demonstrating the outstanding artistry and quality for which Charles Boulenger Cie. is renowned.
