Unlike many houses that have taken their founder's name, Ercuis bears the name of a small village in a country area north of Paris where, in 1867, a young curate created a silversmithing trade in order to rehabilitate the village.
Ercuis today perpetuates tradition through the work of craftsmen and creators who build modernity on the strong basis of experience that has made this firm a great name in French silverware.
Silverplated pieces contain 150 gm of silver per 12 pieces of flatware which is 30 gm more than the French standard of 120 gms. Unless stated otherwise, the designs shown here are silver plated.
