Puiforcat söögiriistad
BAYONNE cutlery collection. It has fascinated artists in search of perfection since Antiquity. In geometric terms, the golden ratio refers to the relationship between two quantities a and b, such that a/b = (a + b)/a. Silversmith-cum-artist JEAN PUIFORCAT also incorporated mathematics into his creative eloquence: spheres, cones and cylinders, among other curving shapes, punctuate his life's work. JEAN PUIFORCAT thus began to delve deeper into the “divine proportion,” as the ratio is sometimes called, to bring his silver creations ever closer to perfection. These mathematical explorations led to Art Deco spoons with a captivating particularity: when the bowl is placed on a fingertip, the stem floats in the air. One indication, among many others, of their perfect design. Evidence as well that the golden ratio and sterling silver go together beautifully.
ROYAL cutlery collection. Louis-Victor Puiforcat, who transformed the simple family cutlery shop into a renowned silversmithing workshop at the end of the 19th century, drew his inspiration from the masterpieces of past craftsmen, which he revived. Thus, the design of the ROYAL line of cutlery had been conceived by 18th century silversmith, Nicolas Cornu. Its nobility lies in the refinement of its curved sterling silver handle, enhanced by an elegant interlacing of rocaille branches. The set’s sophistication demands the perfect mastery of traditional craftsmanship, including the delicate lime finish. The collection, also available upon request in gold immersion finish, includes a wide selection of cutlery and specialty accessories (serving pieces and oyster, snail and lobster forks, etc.)
