Vintage Mother of Pearl Utensils — Set of Five
A charming set of five vintage serving utensils, each individually cut from luminous natural mother-of-pearl. The collection comprises two small three-pronged forks, a spoon, a rounded spreading knife and a slender two-pronged serving pick, their simple silhouettes allowing the natural beauty of the shell to take centre stage. Each piece possesses its own softly shifting tones of ivory, cream and pale gold, catching the light with the characteristic iridescence of mother-of-pearl. Delicately made and pleasingly modest in form, the slight variations between the pieces lend the set the character of traditional hand-cut shell work. Perfect for accompanying a cheese or charcuterie board, the different utensils can be used for cheeses, pâtés, preserves, olives and other small delicacies. Together, they make an unusual and beautiful addition to a laid table—particularly lovely against dark linens or alongside silver and antique tableware.
