tapira

tapira by kira kessler from switzerland

designer's own words:

Tapira is a cutlery made of high-tech ceramic dipped in silver.
It is the selective use of silver which is a rare resource combined with the characteristics of high-tech ceramic.
Ceramic has the advantage as there is no metallic taste or smell, so that the pure taste of food is assured.
The dip in silver gives the high-tech ceramic the twist between innovation and the classical, familiar appearance of silver cutlery.
