From Sketch to Table
Before it reaches the table, Birch is shaped around the Forge de Laguiole profile — steel, handle and handwork brought into one balanced line.
Before it reaches the table, Birch is shaped around the Forge de Laguiole profile — steel, handle and handwork brought into one balanced line.
The characteristic bee, the balance of the handle and the satin matte steel finish give the object its quiet precision.
When designing for the table, the focus is balance, restraint and the feeling of holding something that already belongs in your hand.
Forge de Laguiole Workshop
The set contains 6 forks.
Birch has a pale cream to light golden appearance with a fine, quiet grain and occasional darker curls or markings. It is a natural wood, so subtle differences in tone and pattern should be expected.
Each piece is made and finished by Forge de Laguiole in the village of Laguiole, France, where the handle, steel and characteristic details are assembled and refined.
The satin-matte steel softens reflections and gives the object a calm, tactile character that lets the handle material remain visually central.
Personal engraving may be possible and should be agreed before production so the workshop can confirm the placement and technical details. The expected production and delivery time is approximately four weeks.
Products made with engraving or another individual specification cannot normally be returned unless they are defective. Standard catalogue products remain subject to the statutory withdrawal rights that apply in the customer’s country.
