Tycoon Stone

Transforming precious natural stones, gems and fossils into kitchen knife blocks
“I love the moment when aesthetics and functionality come together in perfect harmony.”

What do they offer?

Tycoon Stone creates bespoke, hand-crafted knife blocks made from rare natural stone. Founder Roland Schmidke – stonemason, sculptor and luxury stone-kitchen maker – magnetises ultra-thin stone slabs to beautifully display high-end kitchen knives. Each block is shaped, polished and finished by hand in the company’s workshop in the Bavarian Alps.

Tell me more…

Every piece is a one-of-a-kind, sourced from extraordinary stones found in remote quarries worldwide. Think vivid Brazilian sodalite, iridescent marble, fossils, crystals, gemstones or even touches of gold leaf. Designs can even incorporate personal elements, such as the brake caliper of a client’s motor car, within a knife block.

The extra mile

They’re functional works of art – exclusive, meticulously crafted and deeply connected to the story of the stone and its owner.
