Zwilling J.A. Henckels
The “Twins” symbol used in the Zwilling J.A. Henckels company logo is derived from Zodiac symbol Gemini (Zwilling is the German word for Gemini and/or twin) as the company was registered during this astrological zodiac sign by founder, knifemaker Peter Henckels, on June 13, 1731, in Solingen, Germany. Today’s company name of Zwilling J.A. Henckels was given to the company by a direct descendant of Peter Henckels, Johann Abraham Henckels. Today, Zwilling J.A. Henckels is a modern international company that values its long tradition of using innovative technology to manufacture products of premium quality. While cutlery has made the name famous, the company also manufacturers high-quality cookware and flatware.
