I am a fork. I love being the carpool guy. All I have to do is grab everyone on the plate, pack them in tight, and off we go to our destination. Yummy yummy in your tummy!
Curator's Notes
Casted in brass, angled handles taper to create striking linear forms. This versatile modern flatware features a well-balanced pleasing feel, graceful proportions and an attractive textural contrast between the Ihada crude brass casting and polished silver. A striking design for the modern table!
