Vintage 19th Century Letang Asparagus Mold
Product Description
A rare culinary relic from 19th century France, this vintage asparagus mold was crafted by the renowned Parisian mold maker Letang Fils. Formed from tin with beautifully articulated detail, the mold captures the slender stalks and tapered tips of asparagus in striking realism. Favored by French chefs and pâtissiers for shaping jellied consommés, vegetable mousses, or iced desserts, Letang molds were prized not only for their utility but for their sculptural presence. This example bears the Letang mark and reflects the elegance of the era’s grand table presentations. The surface has developed a soft, timeworn patina, and the hinged form remains intact. Whether used as a display piece in a kitchen or kept among a collection of antique culinary tools, this mold brings with it the refined ingenuity of 19th century gastronomy. A poetic object that once transformed seasonal ingredients into artful fare.Product Details
