The Alain Saint-Joanis odyssey<\/span><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

In Thiers, the cradle of French cutlery, the history of Alain Saint-Joanis<\/strong> is centuries old. Since 1876, the family business has cultivated its savoir-faire from generation to generation. In the heart of the Puy-de-D\u00f4me, the Saint-Joanis family has made this craft an international reference<\/strong> in fine dining. Exceptional French cutlery has thus endured since the end of the 19th century.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The history of Alain Saint-Joanis and French cutlery<\/h2><\/div>

Although the first cutlery craftsmen<\/strong> appeared in France in the 15th century, this art form experienced a growing boom during the Industrial Revolution. The Saint-Joanis story takes root in the heart of the current Auvergne-Rh\u00f4ne-Alpes region from 1876. Alain Saint-Joanis is ideally located in the French cutlery basin<\/strong> where the city of Thiers, its capital, is located.<\/p>\n

At the end of the 19th century, Alain Saint-Joanis was already producing high quality pieces. This was enough to become a reference among French cutlers. In 1908, the family business received a diploma from the Ministry of Commerce. This paper already attests to the quality of Alain Saint-Joanis products<\/strong>. The family’s artisanal savoir-faire has been passed down from father to son. And with it, all the passion of the cutlery of art<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The family heritage of Maison Alain Saint-Joanis.<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

In the Puy-de-D\u00f4me, the Alain Saint-Joanis story continues. At the time, the family business only produced table knives<\/strong> with ebony, tortoiseshell, mother-of-pearl, ivory or horn handles. These table knives were accompanied by cutlery sets of forks and spoons. But it is only at the end of the XXth century that the Saint-Joanis family created cutlery sets whose handles will be matched<\/strong> with those of the table knives.<\/p>\n

Established in the region of Thiers since 1876, Alain Saint-Joanis is committed to his artisanal savoir-faire. The family heritage and the passion for French cutlery continue to be passed on from father to son. And if the cutlery house has reinvented itself over the centuries<\/strong>, Alain Saint-Joanis has not forgotten its origins. Older collections are regularly adapted to meet an ever more modern lifestyle.<\/p>\n<\/div>

    Thus, with the arrival of the dishwasher, the Saint-Joanis family has revised its manufacturing with new techniques. Techniques that enhance this expertise, always in the purest tradition of French cutlery<\/strong>. Alain Saint-Joanis also insists on the manual assembly and polishing<\/strong> of his cutlery, while the pieces arrive forged in the workshops. The Alain Saint-Joanis story is one of ancestral savoir-faire that is constantly reinvented to meet the expectations of customers, while always respecting the craftsmanship that is the art of cutler<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2531","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nL'histoire
