Tellier serves up stylish slices of tomato

Tellier of France has launched an innovative, easy-to-use, manually operated appliance for cutting tomatoes into perfectly regular slices. The unusually shaped device is hygienic and stylish as well as being simple and safe to use. The company manufactures small utensils for chefs and gourmets.

[ClickPress, Tue Jul 12 2005] The shape of the tomato slicer is both elegant and functional, and its bright red colour brightens up any kitchen. Fitted with fine-toothed stainless-steel blades, it cuts perfectly regular 5.5mm slices of tomato in a second. It is simple to use and also extremely convenient, with a groove around the edge to recover juice.

In ABS and stainless steel, the appliance ensures perfect hygiene – the holder is easy to remove and is dishwasher proof. A protective casing, a handle and four anti-skid pads to keep it stable on the working surface make it totally safe to use. Compact (285mm x 129mm x 160mm) and weighing 805g, it is supplied in individual coloured packaging, and is intended for domestic use only.

About Tellier

Founded near Paris in 1947, Tellier designed the innovative fruit and vegetable mill, which was to become an essential tool for cooks. This was followed by chip cutters, can openers and other small, simple, efficient and robust equipment for professionals. The range was enlarged to include fruit slicers and vegetable peelers, together with tools for sculpting fruits and vegetables. Tellier developed a 'gourmet' range in 2004, and exports to more than 90 countries, representing 50% of its turnover.
