Colorful Modernized Cutlery

The Couverts Old Fashion Collection Updates Antique Utensil Designs

In form, at least, the Couverts Old Fashion collection will look familiar. Perhaps you recognize the elegant, decorative handles from a vintage set of silverware. French designer Noelie Dubos has taken these beautiful and sculptural shapes and recreated them in a very contemporary material.

Instead of using hard-wearing metal to make these spoons, forks and knives, the designer made use of acrylic. It results in lightweight pieces that are quick, easy and cheap to produce and have a softness about them against the skin and lips. Another thing made possible by this material is the ability to give it color. The Couverts Old Fashion collection features a spectrum of blues, purples, maroons, pinks, oranges and reds. There is also a set in metallics of silver, gold, bronze and pewter.
