The Du Barry flatware is the heir to the Louis XV style with its bold floral patterns and asymmetrical decoration. Born during the golden age of silversmithing in France, the Louis XV style, also known as \”Rocaille\”, is one of the most imaginative in the history of decorative arts. Over the centuries, it has become the most perfect embodiment of French taste. The Du Barry silver-plated flatware is distinguished by its plant motifs, shells, flowers and foliage, arranged in a harmonious asymmetry and twisted lines with numerous interlacing and arabesques.
