Ercuis Nil: silver and gold plated cutlery
The Nil collection brings the Ercuis Haute Orfèvrerie savoir-faire to a contemporary register: pure volumes, a continuous line from handle to bowl, and the brilliance of a plated finish. It is the Ercuis answer for a modern mise en place that asks for presence without ornament.
A design drawn from the harmony of natural shapes
Nil is inspired by the harmony of natural shapes and by the majesty of the river it is named after. The soft, clean and balanced lines follow the movement of the hand rather than a decorative motif: the design is read in the profile and in the way light travels along the surface.
Silver plated and gold plated, in the Ercuis tradition
Nil is available silver plated and gold plated. Both finishes are produced at the Ercuis historic manufacture, where the savoir-faire of the master silversmiths has been preserved and passed down since 1867 — the same expertise that equips luxury hotels, palaces, Michelin-starred chefs and private residences.
Composing a contemporary mise en place
Its understated profile makes Nil straightforward to combine with modern porcelain, plain linen and simple glassware, for everyday dining as much as for a formal dinner. The gold plated version can be used on its own or paired with the silver plated pieces to give a table a defined accent.
