The silver exhibited here comprises some of the finest works of leading French and Danish gold and silversmiths of the second half of the 18th century. Many of the pieces, from the Danish Royal Household, are still in daily use today, while most are used only for state banquets and other special occasions. This exhibition aims to give connoiseurs an idea of how the classical French art of the table was interpreted in Denmark.
