  Thiers, the city of cutlers in the rench region of Auvergne, is also the location of the renowned cutting tools manufacturer Au Nain Couteliers. The company with a history spanning 130 years produces top-quality kitchen knives as well as dinner and carving utensils.

There is a widespread belief that the clocks in France tick somewhat differently. Maybe it is simply a tribute to a time that was not as fast moving as today. However, one thing is certain: time only plays an ancillary role when it comes to manufacturing handcrafted goods of high quality. It is a matter of fact that the very firm wood of the slow-growing common hornbeam used in the production of chopping boards or butcher blocks needs its time to grow. To manufacture an excellent work piece out of this good wood takes some time as well - but the result is high-quality cookware that lasts for a lifetime. 

The world fame of the French cuisine is based on two simple principles: high quality standards and excellent workmanship. These quality standards are not only directed towards the ingredients contained in the meals - the cooking utensils used to prepare them are equally as important. This point of view coincides with the company philosophy of de Buyer as the firm places great importance on excellent material and top-notch workmanship when producing cookware and accessories. 

A well-known proverb says "You eat with your eyes first". This is especially true for the fine upper-class cuisine. To an even greater extent, this proverb applies to the process of preparing and cooking meals. The high-quality copper cookware produced by BAUMALU ensures that pots, casseroles and pans are already eye-catchers when standing on the domestic cooker. By using top-class cookware, you will enjoy cooking much more. Since you put more effort into preparing meals with the finest ingredients, you will be able to create excellent dishes. Upper-class cuisine is not only a question of which ingredients you use - the choice of the cookware is equally as important.
