SPOTLIGHT! Laguiole by Claude Dozorme


Claude Dozorme products are consistently bestselling items here at JacKryn France, specifically their Laguiole knife sets. 

Each Claude Dozorme product is manufactured entirely in their traditional factory in France and individually finished by hand. The cutlery speaks for itself in its ability to conjure up an ageless quality, while at the same time remaining decidedly up-to-date and modern. The Laguiole knife, named for the small village in Aveyron, France in which the style was first adapted, has been copied worldwide but with inferior quality and poor attention to detail when compared to the original. Claude Dozorme is the real thing, and their products that last for generations. 

Some fabulous items available from Claude Dozorme are the cheese serving sets (a perfect AND practical hostess gift), breakfast sets, Laguiole steak knife sets and the list can go on and on...a particularly special item is the Claude Dozorme champagne saber. This piece makes a spectacular statement gift.

Nelson Mandela Event Update!

What a great afternoon! The French Country Furniture Auction held at JacKryn France with the Nelson Mandela Children's Fund last Thursday was a huge success! Guests shopped while enjoying gourmet hors d'oeuvres, South African wine, and were able to sample the many flavours of O L'Olivier French olive oils we have to offer. 

Lucky shoppers walked away with hand-crafted French furniture at such great prices that the Director of Sales, Debbie, almost cried! One customer scored a Country Corner round dining table (pictured left), made in France from reclaimed wood, for a mere $480. This table is regularly priced at $1499.99!!! 

Thanks to all who came out for not only making the event so much fun, but for also helping us to support such a worthwhile cause. Keep checking back for updates on events to come!
