Silver-plated sugar tongs in the Malmaison pattern pair nicely with the Malmaison sugar bowl and are an essential part of every tea, coffee and breakfast. 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.
