VERITAS
Wine
loosens the tongue.
"There are sleeping drunks, fighting drunks, quiet drunks and
talkative drunks. In vino veritas, an old Roman proverb, with the literal
meaning 'in wine the truth', tells us that people under the influence of
wine or other spirits will say things they ordinarily try to conceal."
Engravings
locations
Classic models: Engravings are placed on the
lever/boot of the Chateau Laguiole.
Grand Cru and other models: Engravings can be placed on the boot/lever
or bolster. You can also have your engravings placed on both side of the
bolster. Knives: Engravings are placed on the
blade of the knife (opposite side of
the logo) Please
contact
us if you would like your engraving to be placed in a other location.
Monogram Etiquette
When engraving a monogram for one person, we recommend placing the first
initial of the last name in the center (and making it larger) with the first
initial of the first name to the left and first initial of middle name to
the right. So:
Jennifer Ann Smith would appear as
JSA.
When engraving a couple's monogram for a wedding, anniversary, etc., the
first initial of the couple's last name should appear in the center, with
first initial of the woman's first name to the left and first initial of the
man's first name to the right. So:
Jennifer Smith and Ken Smith would appear as
JSK.

Note: Roman is the best choice for boot lever
