dressed cutlery set
Design Marcel Wanders
Mirror polished stainless steel 18/10
Made by Alessi
The cutlery set Dressed was designed by Marcel Wanders. Traditionally, the rules would require that decoration be applied in the most important and most visible areas of the object. Wanders, on the other hand, applies it to secluded areas, a little out of sight, sometimes even in areas that aren't normally visible at all, so much so that we could call it a sort of introverted decoration. In this way, even though he uses a language of signs that is very rich and complex, a bit flowery, a little baroque, Wanders manages to maintain a certain level of overall elegance and lightness.
5 piece service includes:
1 table spoon - 8" L, 1 table fork - 8" L, 1 table knife - 8" L, 1 dessert fork - 7" L, 1 tea spoon - 5" L
24 piece service includes:
6 table spoons, 6 table forks, 6 table knives, 6 coffee spoons - 5" L

Marcel Wanders
Marcel Wanders first drew international recognition for his Knotted Chair produced by the Dutch design brand Droog. The Knotted Chair has since been acquired by the permanent collection of the MoMA.
Alessi was founded in 1921 to produce crafted metal accessories for the kitchen. Alberto Alessi launched Alessi into high design through collaborations with designers like Philippe Starck and his Juicy Salif citrus squeezer.
