Balik La Parure du Tsar

The Balik Fillet Tsar Nikolaj was first introduced back in 1984. Since then it has become a true great in the culinary world. Such a delicacy demands a special way of serving. Hans Gerd Kübel has developed the Parure du Tsar for the procedure of serving, which he wishes to be understood as both "practical" and yet a "treasure for the few".

The stone

”Norwegian, blue-grey shimmering granite, a labradorite, a larvikite as a subspecies of syenite, a feldspar-bearing rock, igneous rock, extremely hard, limitlessly weather-resistant and indescribably beautiful.”

The sickle

”I wanted to develop a device, an instrument with which, firstly, I can hold the Balik filet while cutting and which, secondly, acts as a guide for the knife and, thirdly, is able to present the medallions in a loving way.”

The sword

"The knife had to be designed such that the Balik fillet could be cut upright in a gentle, rounded cutting movement and so that the knife – when tilted sideways – could also lift the medallions".
