Lou Laguiole basic fork

Lou Laguiole is a contemporary cutlery brand that draws inspiration from the traditional Laguiole design, known for its distinctive bee emblem and curved handle. Unlike traditional artisan Laguiole cutlery handcrafted in France, Lou Laguiole is a lifestyle brand designed for mass-market availability.

The brand is owned by the Dutch Amefa Group, a major international player in the cutlery and stainless steel product market. While the design heritage is French, manufacturing for the 'basic' and lifestyle lines typically occurs in Asia to ensure competitive pricing while maintaining European quality standards and oversight.
