This large silver plated rectangular tray with two handles in the Malmaison pattern is ideal for beverage service or tray-passed appetizers at an event. One of Christofle's most historic patterns, Malmaison typifies the Empire style, with its frieze of delicate palm and lotus leaves and symmetrical design. The name is a nod to the Chateau de la Malmaison, a favored Parisian residence of Napoleon Bonaparte and Empress Josephine.
