French Home’s Jubilee tableware collection, made in South Africa, takes inspiration from the Zulu word Jabulani, meaning to rejoice or celebrate. Jubilee tableware is a celebration of the rich art of beading and weaving of the Zulu people. This handicraft has evolved into creating an innovative high quality stainless-steel cheese knife, spreader, and fork that are artistically hand decorated with beautifully colored art wire. A large portion of the profits from a Jubilee collection purchase goes back to the community of crafters who produce these products. This community is supported and empowered to become part of the global marketplace by Zulu women who use their cultural art heritage to craft this tableware collection at home, while looking after their families and earning an income. This stunning cheese knife, spreader, and fork have handles showcasing elegant shades of grey and metallic silver with classic black and white accents, adding a subtle sparkle to any table. Ideal for entertaining, putting together a delicious cheese board, and gift giving.
We love this set and enjoyed using them over the holidays for appetizer trays. They are strong and sturdy with a beautiful look. The one thing that slightly bothers me is the way they applied the finish to the handles. It seems like they used some sort of wire to wrap around the handle. It’s fine, but I’m type-A so it’s a little annoying to have to see the blunt end of the wire. I wish there was a more elegant way to finish that. Otherwise, it’s a wonderful set. I struggled to find a good cheese knife set in stores and this one has fulfilled my wishes!. Olivia. Saint Paul, MN. Sat Jan 07 2023
