Produced by Christofle under its celebrated Gallia line, this French silverplated bottle opener was commissioned as a promotional gift for the renowned mineral water company Vittel, circa 1960s. The design features a profile portrait of the Roman emperor Vitellius, inspired by ancient coinage and cleverly referencing the Vittel name. Retaining its original Gallia presentation box, the piece embodies the elegance and wit of mid-century French advertising. Combining classical Roman imagery, renowned Christofle craftsmanship, and the rich history of French advertising, this unusual piece offers both decorative appeal and collectible significance.
