From 1851 until 1885, Antoine-Vital's son Armand-Edouard ran the company and in 1885 his grandson, Ernest Cardeilhac became the head of the company. It was with Ernest Cardeilhac that gold and vermeil silver-smithing was introduced to the firm. Amélie, widow of Armand-Edouard Cardeilhac, ran the company from 1904 till 1913 from the prestigious 24 place Vendome before moving to 91 rue de Rivoli in 1913. Finally in 1920 both sons of Ernest Cardeilhac, Jacques and Pierre, took over the business until 1951, when the company merged with Christofle. This amazing tea set in the very rare Renaissance pattern is a stunning example of the elegance and quality for which the firm was internationally known.
