Lutece — Guy Degrenne

The Lutèce collection by Guy Degrenne is a canteen in 18/10 stainless steel with a classic, timeless style. Its violin-shaped handle makes it a symbol of French tableware arts, for elegant everyday tables as well as formal services.

What makes the Lutèce collection unique

Lutèce takes up the violin shape, a traditional French cutlery design: soft curves, a handle wide at the base and slightly waisted in the middle, ending with a rounded top. This silhouette is associated with the elegance of classic services. 18/10 stainless steel adds modern maintenance and the resistance of premium-grade stainless steel.

• 18/10 stainless steel, premium grade for tableware

Choosing within the Lutèce collection

What makes the Lutèce collection special?

It is one of Guy Degrenne's classic lines, recognisable by the violin-shaped handle — a traditional French design that has become a symbol of elegant cutlery. This collection is aimed at tables seeking a timeless service that does not date and remains consistent with classic porcelain tableware.

What is the difference with the Solstice collection from the same maker?

Solstice adopts a contemporary design with a triangular flared handle and ovoid top. Lutèce stays with the classic violin handle silhouette. The choice is between French classic style (Lutèce) and contemporary style (Solstice), depending on the table ambience.

Which piece should I start a Lutèce service with?

Start with the sets of 6 table spoons, table forks and serrated table knives: the foundation of a complete canteen for 6 guests. Then complete with teaspoons (for coffee and dessert) and dessert forks for full services.

Is the Lutèce collection dishwasher-safe?

Yes, 18/10 stainless steel is dishwasher-safe. To preserve the shine of the violin handle and avoid limescale marks, quickly rinse after contact with salty foods and dry after the cycle.
