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.
Flat turns simplicity into structure. Across six complete place settings, the same clean silhouette repeats around the table, creating coherence through proportion rather than ornament. The result feels precise and contemporary without making the setting visually severe.
Because when decorative detail is removed, small decisions become more important. The width of the handle, the transition into the functional end and the way the polished surface catches light all begin to define the object. Flat is minimal, but not neutral.
Yes. Repetition gives Flat a quiet rhythm around six plates, while the restrained design leaves space for porcelain, glassware and food to carry their own character. The cutlery gives the table structure without trying to become its focal point.
Because there is nowhere for poor balance to hide. Flat does not use decorative motifs to distract the eye, so the relationship between handle, length and functional end becomes central to the design. Its personality comes from getting those basic elements exactly right.
It reduces the collection to six essential place settings, allowing the same minimal language to be experienced across knife, fork, spoon and tea spoon. At this scale, Flat’s strength becomes clear: a restrained form that can adapt to many different styles of table without losing its identity.
