Mirror-effect finish enhances the high quality of stainless steel, emphasizing shapes and design. The surfaces are polished with additives and mechanical brushes made of different materials, which smooth the stainless steel lending it a high gloss. Reflections enrich the object, make it even more precious.
The knife with an orfèvre hollow handle is typical of the finest cutlery collections. The blade is bonded to the handle by inserting a special cement paste filling that gives the knife an optimal balance. This is an artisanal process that is still carried out today entirely by hand.
Born during the golden age of silversmithing in France, the \”Rocaille\” or Louis XV style is one of the most imaginative in the history of decorative arts. Over the centuries, it has become the most perfect embodiment of French taste. It is characterized by its vegetal motifs, shells, flowers and foliage, arranged with harmonious asymmetry and twisted lines multiplying interlacing and arabesques. The Rocaille sterling silver flatware from Ercuis is a direct legacy of the gardens of Versailles and is inspired by this lush and lavish design.
