Markings \u0026amp; Provenance Note Workshop Hallmark: The underside is struck with the crisp, distinctive master-silversmith hallmark of Orfèvrerie Saint-Médard, depicting a lighthouse flanked by dolphins alongside a standard SILVER-PLATED stamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dior Connection: This exact Saint-Médard hallmark is identical to the maker's marks found on the highly celebrated, smaller 1970s pumpkin table accessories commissioned for the Dior Home collection. While this grander, rare 21cm iteration does not bear the facsimile Dior signature, the shared archival hallmark firmly places its manufacture within the very same elite Parisian workshop production run.
