Bloom is shaped by the softness, simplicity and balance found in nature. Rounded outlines recall flower petals, giving the collection an easy, romantic character that feels light and welcoming on the table.
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.
Bloom translates the softness and balance of natural forms into six complete place settings. Repeated around the table, the rounded silhouettes begin to create a subtle botanical rhythm, without using engraved flowers or literal decoration. The reference to nature is carried by the shape itself.
Because its character comes from softness rather than ornament. Sambonet describes Bloom through smooth, elegant shapes and a sense of ease and romance at the table. The pieces suggest the proportions of flower petals, but the botanical reference remains abstract enough to feel contemporary.
In the Mirror Steel version, light becomes part of the design. Sambonet polishes the stainless steel to a high gloss so reflections emphasise the curves and contours of each piece. As light moves across the table, the petal-inspired forms appear to open and change from different angles.
The knife is monobloc, made from a single piece of steel rather than from a separate blade and hollow handle. Sambonet highlights the resulting feeling of solidity in the hand. That weight creates an interesting contrast with Bloom’s visually soft and delicate silhouette.
Repetition makes the design idea visible. One piece hints at the petal-like geometry; twenty-four pieces arranged across six settings turn those gentle curves into a larger composition. The table begins to feel like a field of repeated natural forms rather than a collection of individual utensils.
