Densified ash is a remarkable and durable material used for handles in Forge de Laguiole products. Sourced from the ash tree, typically found in temperate regions of Europe, North America, and parts of Asia, densified ash is specially treated to enhance its strength and resilience. The process of densification compresses the wood, making it denser, harder, and more durable than regular ash, giving it exceptional longevity.
The wood has a light-brown colour with subtle variations and a straight, uniform grain that adds a sophisticated and contemporary touch to any piece. One of its key attributes is its water resistance. Densified ash is often used in high-end furniture and flooring due to its ability to withstand wear and tear while retaining its beautiful appearance.
Designed by acclaimed French designer Christian Ghion, the Forge de Laguiole Christian Ghion Table Knives are a perfect blend of modern elegance and timeless craftsmanship. Ghion, celebrated for his innovative approach to furniture and product design, has collaborated with prestigious brands and institutions, creating pieces that embody fluidity, sophistication, and contemporary artistry. His work is characterized by clean lines and a deep appreciation for form and function, making these table knives a true testament to his design philosophy.
Crafted with a high-polish stainless steel blade, these knives are available in two luxurious materials: ebony or densified ash tree, both chosen for their durability, beauty, and perfect balance in hand.
Designed for both everyday use and special occasions, the Christian Ghion Table Knives offer a seamless combination of style and practicality.
