I am a teaspoon. I like to take baby steps. Not because I'm overly cautious, but because I like to savor every moment. You can pack a lot of flavor in a little guy like me!
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!
