Why am I telling you this? The elegant shape of this bread knife with a slight curve at the back goes back to the crazy 1920s, the Roaring Twenties, Années Folles, Anni Ruggenti, as they say in Italy.
The blade, with a blue-glazed finish and as sharp as the fashion of the time, and the cherry wood are a nod to times gone by.
Used since Louis XVI in the 18th century, later in the Biedermeier style of the 19th century and then in Art Nouveau, it is an elegant, precious wood that needs to be cherished and cared for. Then it can last for hundreds of years. What does cherry wood go with? With ROBERT HERDER WINDMÜHLENMESSER Macadamia nut oil, which is found in the “Care Products Protection” section. Would you like a kirsch? Or perhaps...
The polished shaft of this bread knife with unusually high teeth on a thin cutting edge sweetens the cutting of the pineapple, which you need for an original Algonquin Cocktail of this time: 4.5 cl whiskey, 2 cl vermouth, 2 cl pineapple juice.
Shake with a swing of the hips, burn calories and feel the spirits of life within you, strain into the cocktail glass of your dreams.
Man's greatest enemy is and remains alcohol. But the Bible says: “You shall also love your enemies.”
