Laguiole 28-Piece Luxury Flatware Set

Choosing luxury flatware: ebony, olive wood or buffalo horn

Ebony handles are polished and deep black, so they gleam against a white tablecloth. Olive wood is left with a satin finish, its honey tone marked with brown veins, for a warmer table. Buffalo horn is also polished black, if you prefer horn to wood. On a single-material set, all 28 handles are in the same material, from the dessert spoons to the carving knife. If you'd rather tell each place apart at a glance, choose a mixed set and give each guest a different look.

Flatware serving pieces for carving and the cheese board

What sets this collection apart from a 24-piece set is its four flatware serving pieces. Carve the chicken, turkey or leg of lamb right at the table with the carving knife and fork, then pass the cheese board with the cheese knife and its fork. Both serving sets come with matching handles, so nothing on the table looks borrowed from another drawer. If you already own a carving set, the Laguiole 24-Piece Flatware Sets cover the six place settings on their own.

High-end flatware, handmade in France

With high-end flatware, what you pay for is how each piece is made and what it's made of. Laguiole en Aubrac makes every piece of this set by hand in France, while much of the flatware stamped with the Laguiole name is factory-made. Natural wood and horn mean no two pieces share exactly the same grain or markings. Every knife blade bears the maker's name, and you'll find a numbered certificate with each set.

Your luxury flatware questions

Your set ships in its case with printed care instructions. After dinner, hand-wash every piece, dry it right away, and never put wood or horn handles in the dishwasher.
