La Fayette

A tribute to the splendour, history and nobility of the 18th century, the La Fayette collection embodies the French classical tradition that Ercuis has carried since 1867. Its finely carved details and ornate contours evoke the Louis XVI style, and are the result of the extraordinary craftsmanship of the Ercuis master silversmiths.

Each piece is offered silver plated and gold plated. La Fayette adorns the table with an aura of majesty and refinement, turning every mise en place into a celebration of excellence.

The La Fayette collection will be available online shortly. In the meantime, subscribe to the Ercuis newsletter — the form is at the bottom of this page — to be told as soon as it goes live.

Ercuis La Fayette: Louis XVI style cutlery

La Fayette is the classical register of the Ercuis collections: a cutlery line whose carved decoration and ornate contours look back to the French 18th century, executed today with the Haute Orfèvrerie savoir-faire of the house.

The classic trim of great French style

La Fayette pays tribute to the splendour, history and nobility of the 18th century. The handles are shaped by finely carved details and ornate contours that evoke the Louis XVI style, giving each piece a defined relief that catches the light along its whole length.

The craftsmanship of the Ercuis master silversmiths

The decoration of La Fayette is the result of the extraordinary craftsmanship of the Ercuis master silversmiths, whose expertise has been preserved and passed down at the historic manufacture since 1867. The collection is available silver plated and gold plated — a member of the Comité Colbert and an Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant, Ercuis dresses luxury hotels, palaces, Michelin-starred chefs and private residences.

A classical mise en place, from formal dinner to reception

La Fayette is made for a table that assumes its classicism: decorated or gilt-edged porcelain, cut glassware, a dressed table for a formal dinner, a wedding or a reception. The gold plated version reinforces the ornamental register of the collection, while the silver plated version keeps it lighter.
