Sambonet 100 expresses contemporary elegance through essential lines, balanced proportions and a disciplined Italian design identity. Created as a celebration of Italian design, the collection combines minimalist rigour with a refined, quietly distinctive presence.
18/10 stainless steel. Monobloc / solid-handle table knives. The carefully finished stainless steel brings clarity to the collection’s lines, proportions and decorative details, creating a refined play of light across the table.
When designing for the table, the focus is balance, restraint and the feeling of holding something that already belongs in your hand.
The 36-piece Sambonet 100 set goes beyond the essential place setting by adding six dessert forks and six dessert knives. For six guests, that creates a second pair of dedicated pieces beyond the main knife and fork, allowing the table to move naturally into another course without abandoning the collection’s design language.
Because they change the choreography of the meal. Instead of one knife following the guest through several courses, the 36-piece set allows a new, smaller-scale pairing to appear later at the table. Sambonet 100 therefore becomes a design that can mark transitions between courses rather than simply accompany them.
That tension is central to Sambonet 100. The handles are slender and subtly arched, creating a sense of lightness even when the collection is repeated across a more complete six-person setting. The number of pieces increases, but the design itself keeps the table from feeling visually heavy.
Sambonet makes the knife as a monobloc piece from a single piece of steel rather than joining a separate blade and hollow handle. The result is a reassuring feeling of solidity when it is lifted, creating a deliberate contrast with the collection’s visually slender and elegant profile.
By keeping the same design language while changing scale and function. The table pieces establish Sambonet 100 around the main course, while the dessert knife, dessert fork and tea spoon carry its polished steel, restrained proportions and contemporary Italian character into the quieter final part of the meal.
