What does the “BCCTOR” mark mean?

The Buccellati Torchon Sterling pattern features a distinctive rope-twist motif—its defining characteristic. The handle is designed to resemble a twisted cord or rope (the word torchon means “twist” or “twisted” in French), giving the flatware a sculptural, tactile appearance. The twist runs the full length of the handle, creating an elegant spiral effect that catches light and highlights Buccellati’s mastery of hand-textured detailing. Despite the complexity of the twist, the silhouette remains balanced and symmetrical, with a rounded terminal and a smooth transition to the utensil head. The overall style is both decorative and refined, blending traditional European craft inspiration with Buccellati’s distinctive textural artistry. Produced from 1970 to the present, Torchon Sterling is one of the brand’s iconic textured patterns.
