Know before you buy
The set is designed for four people and includes 6 dinner forks (the signature 5-prong design), 6 knives, 6 large spoons, and 6 small spoons.
No, this cutlery set is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the polished finish and integrity of the stainless steel, we recommend hand washing and drying each piece promptly after use.
The 5-prong design is a hallmark of John Pawson’s minimalist aesthetic. It offers a distinct, sculptural look that differs from the traditional 4-prong fork while providing excellent balance and functionality for dining.
While crafted from high-quality 18/10 stainless steel, this set is not specifically treated for heat or rust resistance. It is best suited for standard dining use rather than high-heat cooking or prolonged exposure to harsh environments.
The cutlery features a one-piece stainless steel construction, giving it a solid, substantial feel in the hand. The design prioritizes a clean, minimalist silhouette over ergonomic contouring, emphasizing form and elegance.
