Buccellati

 

Buccellati has been known for over 100 years for exquisitely luxurious sterling silver creations, including flatware, vessels, trays, frames, and sculptural objects. The value and quality of the silver, the artists' creativity, the timelessness of each design, and the absolute mastery of craftsmanship exhibited by this designer, make Buccellati’s work the most worldwide respected for sterling silver. We see the difference at Lux Bond & Green. As a certified Buccellati retailer, we offer over ten silverware styles that showcase Buccellati's range of ability to create ornate and intricate, as well as modern, sets. Every single spoon and fork passes through 30 steps of handcrafting before it arrives on your dining room table. Fine sterling silverware sets are heirlooms to cherish and keep in the family, as are Buccellati’s impressive trays and frames featuring impressively detailed nature motifs.

 

In 1919, Mario Buccellati founded his business in Milan, after learning the ropes as a metal apprentice. The son of a goldsmith, Mario studied and employed techniques that can be traced back to the Italian Renaissance. As Mario’s talent and collection grew, his work gained acclaim, and it particularly appealed to Spanish aristocrats as well as the British royal family. After bringing his collections across Europe, Buccellati hopped the pond in the 1950s to make its first appearance on Fifth Avenue in New York City. Today, Buccellati is owned and operated by Mario’s descendants, and the atelier still uses the same techniques that first made Mario’s designs so eye-catching, creating Buccellati designs by hand in workshops in Italy, near Milan, Florence, and Venice.

 

Besides the perfectly weighted silverware that makes dining a delight, Lux Bond & Green favors Buccellati dishes featuring leaves, flowers, and fruit, such as oaks, daisies, and pomegranates. These dishes are executed in a remarkably lifelike yet whimsical manner. In addition, we offer gorgeous Buccellati picture frames with leaves rendered in high relief, swirling around the face of the photo, and backed by leather. Buccellati silverware and home decor are excellent gifts, perfect for weddings, new homeowners, or simply for someone who deserves a sterling silver treasure.
