JASHII Luxury Jubilee Blue Flatware – Space Cutlery

The last couple of posts we gave JASHII a hard time for being lazy with naming their cutlery sets. Now this set does have an actually name “Luxury Jubilee Blue” but we think “Space Cutlery” would have been a whole lot better. I mean, come on, this flatware looks like it’s from that Avatar movie or something. It’s amazing! Look at those sleek lines and that amazing color!

This setting for four people includes a Dinner Knife, Coffee Spoon, Dinner Fork, Dessert Spoon, and Salad Fork.

We love their description of the finish: “Polishing mirror: Luxury polishing mirror Polish breaks depression and keeps tableware bright, fashion and elegant.”

Made of dishwasher safe 18/10 stainless steel but be careful with certain acidic cleaners as it can take the black finish off, we recommend hand washing.

JASHII Elegant Black Cutlery

As we mentioned before sometimes companies get a little lazy in naming their cutlery sets. They’ll just state the name of their company and maybe the color of the product and not bother with the creative effort to come up with a unique name.

The JASHII Flatware Set is a whole bunch of products but we decided to call this one “Elegant Black Cutlery”. This set has such a defined elegant classic look. The holes in the handles? Why? Don’t care, they look great. This flatware brings class to your table.

This Elegant Black Cutlery Flatware Set contains 6 dinner knives, 6 dinner forks, 6 dinner spoons, 6 teaspoons. It is made of dishwasher safe 304 stainless steel. But careful with certain acidic cleaners as it can take the finish off, we recommend hand washing.

JASHII Flatware Set – Hook in Black

Sometimes companies get a little lazy in naming their cutlery sets. They’ll just state the name of their company and maybe the color of the product and not bother with the creative effort to come up with a unique name. I understand that getting a product name approved can be a hassle but come on guys, have some fun.

The JASHII Flatware Set is a whole bunch of products but we like the look of this set that we have decided to call “Hook in Black”. Black cutlery is a real statement at the table and over and above that is the hooked design in this set. The original idea of this design of spoon was that it could hook on the edge of a bowl or cup so as not to drip on the table. They took it a bit farther and we think it looks great!

This 32 piece set includes 8 coffee spoons 8 dinner spoons, 8 dinner forks, and 8 dinner knives. It is made of dishwasher safe 304 stainless steel. But careful with certain acidic cleaners as it can take the black finish off, we recommend hand washing.

Cutlery Sets That Made Design History

The very nice folks over at Domus have written a very interesting article about 20 cutlery sets that made design history. It is a really well researched piece about flatware through time that are influential in their design. This isn’t your regular knife, fork and spoon. And of course they have a slide show of photos.

“Extensions of our hands, they embody an etiquette that imposes rules on the use closely linked to social norms. Between continuity and experimentation with shapes and types, a selection of unmissable and iconic cutlery sets.“

“Cutlery is a clear symptom of (lack of) social belonging if it is used inappropriately. Placed on the plate in a certain way, it gives the waiters unequivocal signals about our appetite and the enjoyment of eaten dishes. At the table, it should be laid out according to a real etiquette. However, we do not care about it, preferring a casual table setting that rewards closeness and conviviality by sacrificing the etiquette itself.”

This is a great history lesson in design and form versus function.
