Erik Magnussen’s EM cutlery is remarkably restrained, but a subtle concave curve gives the pieces their distinctive character. Across a 24-piece setting for six, that quiet detail repeats through knife, fork, spoon and tea spoon, creating identity without relying on decoration.

Stelton gives EM a satin-polished stainless-steel surface rather than a highly reflective mirror finish. The softer surface emphasises the shape without turning reflections into the main attraction, giving the collection a quieter and more tactile expression.

Erik Magnussen was trained as a ceramicist and remained deeply interested in material, craftsmanship and the tactile qualities of everyday objects. In EM, that sensibility appears in a design that is visually simple but carefully shaped around how an object is handled and used.

According to Stelton’s product specifications, the EM dinner knife measures 21.5 cm, the dinner fork 20.8 cm and the tea spoon 12.2 cm. The relatively elongated dinner pieces contribute to EM’s sleek, modern appearance while the smaller tea spoon brings the same design language to a more intimate scale.

That idea runs through Erik Magnussen’s work for Stelton. He focused on making everyday objects intuitive, practical and durable rather than unnecessarily complicated. EM brings that philosophy directly to the table: a familiar tool refined through material, proportion and one carefully controlled curve.
