Arc-Shaped Eating Implements

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Shamshir Cutlery Better Complements the Common Forms of Crockery

— January 21, 2014 — Art & Design
The designer of the Shamshir Cutlery Set was thinking about the physical characteristics of eating utensils in an unusual yet enticing way. XYZ Integrated Architecture asks why silverwear does not better match the shapes that you typically see in dishes, and why it is slim and linear forms that get placed on either side of circular plates and bowls.

Each piece of the Shamshir Cutlery collection has been made to take a perfect curving shape that accounts for a quarter of a complete ring. The prongs of the fork, the sharp edge of the knife and the scooper of the spoon have all been worked cleverly into the silver material to maintain crisp contours. The implements can be laid out on the tablecloth with their tips touching, creating halos around your crockery.
Trend Themes
1. Arc-shaped Eating Implements - Shamshir Cutlery Set introduces arc-shaped eating utensils that better complement dish shapes.
2. Curving Cutlery Collection - Shamshir Cutlery Collection features utensils with quarter-ring shapes for enhanced design and functionality.
3. Halos Around Crockery - Shamshir Cutlery can be arranged with tips touching to create halos around the tableware.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage - The food and beverage industry can explore the use of arc-shaped eating implements to enhance the dining experience.
2. Home Goods - The home goods industry can capitalize on the popularity of curving cutlery collections by offering innovative and aesthetically pleasing designs.
3. Hospitality - The hospitality industry can incorporate Shamshir Cutlery's halo effect to create visually appealing table setups and elevate dining experiences.
