Sabering
What is Sabering?
Sabering is the French tradition of removing the cork from a bottle of champagne. This ritual dates back to Napoleon, when his soldiers used the reverse edge of their saber to break the neck of the bottle.
Hence, the French expression "saber the bottle" came about illustrating the French belief that it is better to destroy the bottle than to do without champagne!
Give your guests a champagne toast they will always remember and let Jan saber your bottle of champagne. For weddings, you can cut your first piece of cake using our incredible sterling silver Christofle saber!
"In victory one deserves it, in defeat one needs it."
-- Napoleon
