Jungle covers the handle with an interweaving of natural elements. The decorative motif transforms botanical references into a contemporary graphic surface, bringing texture and personality to 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.
The 24-piece Jungle set turns Gianni Cinti’s decorative language into a rhythm around the table. Knife, fork, spoon and tea spoon repeat the same expressive surface from guest to guest, making the cutlery feel less like neutral equipment and more like part of the styling of the entire setting.
Because much of its identity lives on the surface. Rather than relying only on silhouette, Jungle uses pattern, reflection and texture to create character, echoing the way fashion can transform a familiar form through print, material and finish.
Jungle is built around that tension. Sambonet describes the design as an interweaving of natural elements, but the effect is abstract rather than literal. The surface introduces movement and irregularity without turning the cutlery into a botanical illustration.
One piece can be read as an object; twenty-four pieces begin to create atmosphere. Across six settings, the recurring decoration connects one guest to the next and gives the table a visual identity that remains present even when the porcelain and food change.
Jungle makes that idea surprisingly literal. Designed by Gianni Cinti, the collection treats the cutlery surface almost like a textile or fashion layer: something functional that also contributes pattern, mood and personality to the setting.
