This one person set of very stylish cutlery consists of 5 pieces: a storage box, chopsticks, knife, fork, dinner and dessert spoon. Made from dishwasher safe 18/10 stainless steel.
This is high end cutlery for high end dining.

Star Spangled Spatula

Star Spangled SpatulaIt’s that time of year and what better way to celebrate than a backyard BBQ? And how could you be more patriotic that using a Star Spangled Spatula?

This American made cutlery was designed by Jacob Riley-Wasserman for the company Areaware. It is made from solid walnut and stainless steel. Hand fabricated by one of the oldest and most-respected cutlery manufacturers in the United States since 1837. They are using energy harvested from Massachusetts’ Deerfield River.

Good to see they practice what they preach.
