Driven by a search for new ways to enjoy food, these pieces don’t follow the normal rules of usability. Instead, they challenge you to reconsider preconceptions about the relationship between tableware and the user. They can be loved for their thought-provoking function but also for their beauty.

Yet it is not only about beauty. All the pieces are crafted only from natural materials, such as wood, calabash, stone, clay and glass. Often sourced locally and using materials that are found, recycled and/or reused. Even the smaller parts of the pieces such as glue, paint, and glazing, are organic and biodegradable.

    Reminds me of that story when prisoners were locked in a room full of food. They had lomg spoons and were told to feed themselves by only holding the end of the spoon. They could not reach it with their mouths and nearly starved to death. They got fed by feeding each other with the spoons rather than feeding themselves.

    I've heard a similar story but slightly different. There was a man who got to visit Hell. He saw that everyone was unhappy because there was a delicious pot of soup in front of them, only their spoons were to long for them to use themselves. The he went to Heaven, and saw the same situation, except that everyone was happy because they fed each other.

    I could see this being useful for noodle soups, you could get noodles and soup at the same time, instead of the noodles sliding off, or having to use two utensils.
