When cutlery takes flight

The Butterfly collection by Laguiole en Aubrac is an ode to finesse, color, and freedom. It features four exceptional knives, each with a stabilized birchwood handle dyed in vivid, satin hues. This natural wood transforms into a poetic, colorful, and sensory medium. Replacing the traditional bee, a sculpted butterfly graces the top of the blade—symbol of transformation and escape. The spring, chiseled into a feather shape, enhances each piece’s airy and graphic silhouette. The knives express their personality through four colors: blue, yellow, orange, and green. A collection that is dreamy, technical, and contemporary all at once.

The butterfly is more than just a decorative motif. It’s a living symbol of the Aubrac. In the Saint-Chély-d’Aubrac region alone, over 150 butterfly species are recorded. True masters of transformation, these discreet pollinators help local flora reproduce. The Butterfly collection pays tribute to this fleeting yet essential beauty.
