Questions about MEPRA Katja

What gives MEPRA Katja its distinctive character?

Katja is shaped through flowing asymmetric lines and a distinctive curved knife profile. The design feels expressive without becoming loud, using movement and polished restraint to create a modern place setting.

How does Katja feel and live at the table?

The 18/10 stainless steel gives Katja a balanced weight and a clear tactile presence. The design is intended to be noticed through the hand and the rhythm of the place setting rather than through ornament alone.

How does the surface change the mood of Katja?

In its mirror-polished expression, Katja gathers the light in clean reflections. The brilliance sharpens the outline and gives the place setting a precise, luminous presence.

Where has MEPRA Katja appeared at the table?

Santa Elisabetta (2 Michelin stars), Florence, Italy — Bespoke decoration; Aroma (1 Michelin star), Rome, Italy — Black Gold Ice; La Griglia di Varrone, Milan, Italy — Peltro. These references show how Katja can retain its identity across very different dining rooms.

What should be known about its made-to-order production?

Each set is made to order in Italy. This slower rhythm of production reflects the care taken with the final composition and surface, and it usually requires a longer lead time than a standard stock item. Changes may not be possible once production has begun. Because each set is made to order, it cannot be returned or exchanged once produced. Statutory rights concerning defects, damage or incorrect goods remain unaffected.
