Tableware Ariège

Jean-Paul Tisseyre, "meilleur ouvrier de France" in 2007, has become one of the finest craftsmen in his field. He applies his know-how to two registered trademarks (Tisseyre and Montségur France), and designs and manufactures mainly one-off pieces or small series (folding or fixed knives for hiking, hunting, the table or the kitchen), characterized by their originality and the high quality of the materials used. He attracts many collectors, who travel all the way to Ariège to have a knife made to measure.

The Georgette is a hybrid fork, knife and spoon designed by Jean-Louis Orengo. This aesthetically successful all-rounder slices, spreads, picks and picks. Cut from thick, food-grade stainless steel, La Georgette comes in a range of finishes: shiny, matt, silver-plated metal, black titanium, gold or bronze. There's even a version for left-handers! Many chefs have adopted it, including Alain Ducasse and Hélène Darroze. This year, Le George appeared: a prehistoric double-edged knife!

The house of Savignac dates back to the second half of the 18th century. The ancestors of the family were master cutlers and made capuchin knives, traditional, simple knives that were widely used at the time. Nowadays, the capucin has evolved and has become an exclusive model, called the "Ariège". All the production is local. The handles can be made of ivory or deer antlers or stabilized mammoth bone. All these models are prized by collectors. Discover the shop or order online on the website. Opposite, the shop dedicated to gift ideas.
