I looked it up and it seems that the manufacturer or retailer of this piece still exists in Brussels
Au Grand Rasoir - Maison Jamart has been Court Supplier for ages. And once you have entered this store, you know it for sure. Once you become king or queen this is the only kind of shop you would be deigning to visit. Knives, scissors, razors and pocket knives are on display in the window. Here you will find anything that is sharp. And once inside, you might think you just went back forty years in time. Magnificent counter, of course, for even the shop's sign itself already evokes nostalgia. There is a workshop where cutlery is (re)silvered and where knives and scissors are ground and repaired. When dining in the Royal Palace you cut your finger - here's the guilty party. |
