NEW Book - Flatware That's Not "Flat": Design and Production of Innovative Table Cutlery, 1890-2015
By William Hood Jr. Phil Dreis (owner of Antique Cupboard)
Outstanding coffee table book with 863 pages with 900+ gorgeous color photos, almost 2 1/2" thick! Absolutely beautiful and informative book - 10 years to create this wonderful book. Hard copies of our book are very limited!
"Little appreciated by the average diner, over the past 125 years almost
everything connected with flatware/table cutlery has changed: who
designs it, how it is designed, who makes it, where it is made, how it
is made, what is it made of, how it looks, and in some cases even how it
functions. This book traces this evolution in terms of: I – Decorative
Style: from art nouveau to pluralism II – Basic Sizes and Shapes: from
large size and more or less standard forms to variable size and
non-standard forms III – Functional Types: from many to few, but some
radically new IV – Designers and Producers: from in-house design and
manufacture to consultant designers and outsourced makers and V –
Materials and Methods: from nearly 100% silver or silver-plate to 90%
stainless steel with a variety of finishes, and from low-tech to
high-tech methodology. These changes are illustrated in over 900 color
photographs of 820 flatware patterns/entities of worldwide origin from
both private and public collections. This work is the first dealing with
a selection of modern flatware of this scope and depth. The main text
contains approximately 60,000 words and is extensively referenced. The book will appeal to modernist consumers, collectors,
scholars, dealers, and museum and design professionals."
