La Tavola Flatware Set- Brass + Stainless Steel

Hand carved and cast, the La Tavola Flatware Set draws from the idea of the table itself. Planks worn by time, shaped by use, and carried through generations. The handles echo this language: carved with a weight and irregularity that recalls timber boards, ship decks, and the quiet tension between refinement and raw material. 

Formed in solid, lead-free brass and paired with 18/10 stainless steel, the contrast is deliberate. Each piece sits heavy in hand, grounded and balanced, with engraved Shelton Metal markings subtly embedded into the surface as a quiet signature of origin.

Designed as a five-piece place setting with fork, knife, and spoons for every course. It transforms the act of dining into something slower, more intentional. Not just tools, but a framework for gathering, for conversation, for the rituals that unfold around the table.

Over time, the unlacquered brass will deepen and darken, developing a patina that reflects its use, each meal leaving behind a trace.

An object for the table. A set to collect and pass down.

Care:

Dishwasher safe, though hand washing is recommended.
Brass handles will naturally patina with time—polish with lemon juice and baking soda if a brighter finish is desired, or allow the surface to age as part of the piece’s story.
