Inspired by the Art Deco style Bernard Yot designed the Talisman collection in 1986 for Christofle .
This cutlery combines silver and authentic Chinese lacquer, mineral and vegetal, using the rediscovered "cloisonné" process.
Applied in ten extremely thin layers, dried one by one, the lacquer, after polishing, becomes practically more inalterable than metal, hence its legendary resistance to shocks and daily use.
