“Santiago” is a contemporary design whose forms are reminiscent of traditional English cutlery, notably the three-pronged fork and rounded soup spoon. Attention to continuity of form makes the grip soft and the design startling (despite its apparent simplicity), as can be seen, for example, in the blade of the Knife which lengthens the handle by making it more slender.
A beautiful compliment to his Tonale dishware, David Chipperfield’s Santiago cutlery is simple, but with great detail. Although square in its edges, the pieces are very elegant. The knife blade tapers a bit to create length. The three slim tines on the forks have noticeable space between them accentuating their slender lines. Made of 18/10 stainless steel.
