01 THE STORY
From Sketch to Table
Before it reaches the table, Snakewood is shaped around the Forge de Laguiole profile — steel, handle and handwork brought into one balanced line.
02 THE DETAILS
The Details
The characteristic bee, the balance of the handle and the satin matte steel finish give the object its quiet precision.
A note from Forge de Laguiole Workshop
