Puiforcat’s Cannes collection was born in 1928 in the heart of the French Riviera. The grand Art Deco residence, Hôtel Martinez, was its muse – the cutlery’s grooves mirroring the lines of the hotel’s iconic façade. So beloved was this collection, that Jean Puiforcat himself chose it for his wedding table. As ever, this soup ladle holds true to tradition, handcrafted by master silversmiths in the Parisian workshop.

Puiforcat
Behind Puiforcat’s grand present belies a modest past; in 1820, brothers Émile and Joseph-Marie Puiforcat joined forces with their cousin, Jean-Baptiste Fuchs, to open a cutlery shop in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris. Fast forward to 1902 and Louis-Victor Tabouret – the husband of Laure Puiforcat – assumed the helm, taking it from humble storefront to high-flying silversmith. Under his influence, dining rooms shone with sterling silver, capturing the history and glory of art de la table a la française. During the 1920s, creative control passed through Jean Puiforcat’s hands – the visionary behind collections with an Art Deco persuasion – before Hermès’ acquisition in 1993. Sterling silver is of the highest grade, which craftspeople in the Pantin-based workshop hammer, planish, spin, chase and engrave to reach the final, museum-worthy results.
