Robbe & Berking: Martelé

Etagere

Because chocolates deserve a proper stage

Of course, chocolates and pastries could simply be placed on a plate. But some treats deserve a little more attention. The Martelé Etagere by Robbe & Berking transforms small indulgences into a beautiful focal point on the table. Featuring two elegant tiers and standing 14.5 cm high, it provides a refined way to present chocolates, macarons, petits fours, pastries and other delicacies while adding a touch of sophistication to any setting.

Crafted in Germany and finished with premium silver plating, the etagere showcases the distinctive Martelé surface. The French word “Martelé” translates as “hammered” and refers to a traditional silversmithing technique that creates gently flowing facets across the surface. Inspired by the movement of waves, these subtle textures capture and reflect light beautifully, giving the silver remarkable depth and brilliance.

Whether used for afternoon tea, elegant dinners or festive celebrations, the Martelé Etagere adds refinement without ever feeling formal. It creates atmosphere naturally and allows even the simplest treats to shine.

For the moments guests remember most

Often, it is the small details that leave a lasting impression. A selection of chocolates after dinner, homemade pastries with coffee or delicate canapés served during an aperitif feel instantly more special when thoughtfully presented.

The two-tier design creates visual interest and makes efficient use of table space while keeping everything easily accessible. Elegant yet practical, it works beautifully for everyday occasions as well as more celebratory gatherings.

Where craftsmanship becomes tradition

Since 1874, Robbe & Berking has represented some of the finest silversmithing craftsmanship in the world. Still family-owned and now led by its sixth generation, the company remains committed to its principle of “Manu Factum” – made by hand.

Every piece produced in the Flensburg workshop is shaped by skilled master craftsmen rather than the limitations of mass production. Extensive quality control and meticulous attention to detail ensure the exceptional standards for which Robbe & Berking is internationally renowned.

A little brilliance between coffee and conversation

The Martelé Etagere pairs beautifully with other pieces from the Martelé collection as well as Robbe & Berking cutlery ranges such as Martelé, Dante and Riva. Its textured surface catches the light throughout the day, creating subtle reflections that bring warmth and elegance to the table.

Whether filled with chocolates, desserts or seasonal treats, this etagere is more than a serving piece. It is an invitation to slow down, enjoy good company and celebrate the simple pleasures that make a table feel truly welcoming.
