For centuries the Alsace has been known all over the world for fine Tableware and Gastronomy. The Fame of its Master craftsmen be their Crystal cutters or SIlver smiths set a world standard. The variety and wealth of its cuisine combined to make the Alsace a high place of French gastronomy and much more. Back in the Eighteenth century, SIlversmithing emerged as a premiere local craft, especially in Strasbourg which still boasts a " Silversmiths Street" near the exceptional Gothic Cathedral.

Once upon the time....
..There was a young man named Christian DEETJEN who came from Hamburg, Germany to work as a Silversmith in Strasbourg. His skills, craftmanship and artistry were soon famous among his peers.

This was in 1807
Over the years the Deetjen family tradition continued. Christian's son Edouard, set up a workshop where he pioneered the art of Goldplating. Edouard's son, also named Edouard developed fine silbverplating for flatware and holoware.

This was back in 1845.
And so started the Deetjen story. Eversince Deetjen has been renowned for its Silveware manufactured to the highest standards of craftsmanship and quality.
