純銅洋食器 ジャムナイフ 銀仕上
£26.00 per item
A silver-plated copper jam knife handcrafted by skilled metal artisans from Tsubame City, Niigata Prefecture.
This series of silver-coated copper cutlery is skillfully fashioned by the metal craftspeople at Kōbō Aizawa in Tsubame City, Niigata Prefecture, a region renowned for its metalworking industry. The minimal and contemporary design is plated in brushed silver, with the contrasting copper body left exposed at the end of the handle. The visible copper body and silver plating will naturally develop a patina as they tarnish over time, however their shine can be regained simply by polishing. The extensive range of cutlery can be used in a variety of settings, whether it be a formal dinner occasion or a casual coffee break.
This silver-coated copper jam knife has a smooth edge, rounded point and curved surface to scoop jam and spread fluidly.
Handwash only.
Size: L14xW1.5cm
