Christofle Albi

The Christofle Albi cutlery pattern, introduced in 1968, quickly became a beloved classic within the Christofle collection. Named after the French town of Albi, located between Toulouse and Bordeaux, the design draws inspiration from the clean, straight lines and single nave of the renowned Albi Cathedral. This architectural influence is evident in the refined and polished look of the Christofle Albi silverware, characterized by its elegant simplicity.

The Albi silverware has expanded to include a wide range of items, from standard flatware like forks, knives, and fish knives to specialized pieces such as shellfish forks, cheese knives, and caviar service tools. It also features a variety of table accessories, including bread baskets, trays, butter dishes, and more.

The Christofle Albi collection’s enduring popularity stems from its timeless, elegant design with clean lines and subtle details. Its subtle double ridge and generous exterior molding, complemented by a delicate internal thread-like border along the handles, evoke Louis Philippe style, making it a versatile match for any porcelain and a staple in refined table settings.
