489€
- GBP: 416£
In this exclusive Laguiole en Aubrac variant, the traditional “Bee” component, often crafted in the shape of a bee, is innovatively replaced with the famous Bunch of Grapes. The knife boasts a handle of polished grapevine wood, accented by radiant stainless steel bolsters and a matching, lustrous stainless steel blade.
For connoisseurs of wine, the vine holds deep symbolic value, resonating with themes of cultural heritage, historical significance, and spiritual depth. It stands as an emblem of vitality and renewal, its life cycle from bloom to grape harvest mirroring the cycles of rebirth and enduring legacy.
The vine has long been intertwined with the narrative of human progress, representing the cultivation of civilization itself. The art of viticulture and winemaking showcases the zenith of human knowledge and artistic skill, a testament to our capacity for creation and refinement.
In spiritual and religious narratives, especially within Christianity, the vine carries profound meanings. It is often associated with prosperity, divine connection, and is considered by some as paradise’s first tree, planted by Noah post-deluge. The grape bunch symbolizes the bounty of the land, while the vine itself illustrates community and unity, growing collectively like a family intertwined.
