Its name is associated with French luxury silversmithing of the 19th and 20th centuries. The manufactury was acquired by “Christofle” in 1951. After 1951: Christofle took over Cardeilhac, but continued to market objects under the brand “Cardeilhac” without necessarily displaying the Christofle name on the boxes. Very careful protective shipping!
