Vintage Art Deco Silver-Plated Champagne Cooler
Vintage Art Deco Silver-Plated Champagne Cooler by Potfer, Paris
A worthy companion for evenings that call for a little sparkle (and preferably a chilled bottle), this vintage silver-plated champagne cooler by Potfer Paris brings a bold touch of early 20th-century Parisian modernism straight to your table. With its clean, architectural lines and sculptural side handles, the piece channels that unmistakable Art Deco confidence—sleek, refined, and quietly glamorous without trying too hard.
Crafted in Paris by Eugène Potfer, a respected silversmith active from the late 19th century into the early decades of the 20th, this cooler reflects the house’s commitment to sturdy craftsmanship and elegant, functional forms. Potfer’s workshop was known for high-quality silver-plated wares—table pieces made for stylish households, grand cafés, and well-appointed hotels across the city. Think durable French chic: practical enough for daily service, beautiful enough for a soirée.
This particular cooler has a pleasing weight in the hand (always a reassuring sign) and that wonderfully modernist, tapered silhouette that feels at home in both a vintage interior and a contemporary bar setup.
In lovely vintage condition with gentle signs of use—soft surface marks appropriate for its age and a clean interior ready for immediate duty. Fully marked on the underside.
A piece with presence, provenance, and just the right amount of Art Deco swagger—ready to elevate your next celebration.
