{"product_id":"set-of-six-french-folding-picnic-knives","title":"Set of Six French Folding Picnic Knives","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eA set of six small fixed-blade knives from Patricia's culinary collection at Chanteduc, her farmhouse and cooking school in Vaison-la-Romaine — the kind of object that says everything about how seriously the French approach even the most casual pleasures of the table.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eEach knife has a pointed steel blade, a warm brass bolster and end cap, and a handle of richly grained dark wood secured with brass rivets. The wood varies subtly from piece to piece — some with a tighter grain, others more open and rustic — giving the set a handmade coherence rather than factory uniformity. The brass has deepened to a burnished gold, and the blades carry the honest patina of decades of use. They are presented on a simple pale wood tray that keeps them neatly fanned and ready.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003ePerfect for a Chanteduc picnic or a spread of snacks in the garden — slicing saucisson, cheese, fruit, or a crusty baguette with the unpretentious ease that defines Provençal outdoor eating. Today, they would be just as well placed laid out on a wooden board at a summer table, or arranged as a small sculptural grouping in a kitchen or dining room that values the beauty of well-made, well-used things.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLight wear.\u003cbr\u003eBox is approx. 5\" x 5\" x 1¼\" Knives are approx. 4¼\" long\u003cbr\u003eBox is approx. 13cm x 13cm x 3cm Knives are approx. 11cm long\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54310839288146,"sku":"25487","price":393.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC01390_ed4da6fc-d715-41e3-8845-169860752525.jpg?v=1787231412","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/set-of-six-french-folding-picnic-knives","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
