Bespoke Vintage Danish Cutlery: A Love Story in Brass and Teak

Yes, these beauties were designed in Denmark. Yes, they were made in Thailand. Yes, it's the 1960s and geography was more of a suggestion. Welcome to mid-century globalization at its finest.

Each piece in this collection has been lovingly liberated from its past life as a dark-stained wood tragedy (what were they thinking?) and restored to its most honest, natural self. We're talking warm teak handles that actually look like wood, paired with brass that's giving "I've lived a life and I have stories."

What you're getting: A complete 6-piece place setting for 4 (because four is the perfect dinner party number—intimate but not weird), plus a chic salad serving set for when you pretend to eat healthy, and one absolutely glorious serving spoon that deserves its own spotlight. Seriously, this spoon could serve mashed potatoes at the MoMA.

The vibe? Impossibly chic. The kind of cutlery that makes you want to eat a simple cheese plate while wearing linen and contemplating the fjords. Will they match your other silverware? Absolutely not. Will they make everything else on your table look boring? Without question.

Each piece is one-of-a-kind because that's what happens when you rescue 60-year-old utensils from obscurity. Slight variations in patina and wood grain aren't flaws—they're character. They're je ne sais quoi. They're proof these forks have been to more dinner parties than you have.

Functional art for people who believe eating should be an experience, not just a necessity.

Fair warning: I've oiled the majority of them so the wood appears a little darker and moodier. But after the first HAND WASH (yes, hand wash—don't be a monster), that oil will fade and the wood will lighten up to its natural tone. Think of it as a little surprise evolution for your props

Got questions? I've got answers! (Well, most of the time. Sometimes I just have more questions.) Email me at adamcpearson@gmail.com before you buy—I promise I check my inbox more often than I check my life choices.

Please hand wash—the dishwasher will obliterate the vibe faster than you can say "vintage." I've lovingly oiled each piece, and even polished some of them because I'm extra like that. They'll develop a "living finish" over time, which is a fancy way of saying they'll age gracefully while you panic slightly. Embrace the patina. It's called character, not neglect.

Shipping: The Part Where I Pretend I Know What I'm Doing

Shipping is $13 via USPS Flat Rate boxes because apparently that's just what it costs to yeet things across America these days.

If you order multiple items, I'll absolutely try to Tetris everything into one box like I'm competing for a gold medal in spatial reasoning. Will I succeed? Maybe! I'm a food stylist, not a logistics engineer, but I am very determined and have watched a lot of YouTube videos about packing.

The Promise: Your order will arrive safely, even if my organizational system is "vibes-based filing" and my warehouse is technically just a corner of my living room.

Pro tip: Ordering multiple things? I'll do my absolute best to combine shipping and refund you the difference. It's the least I can do since you're trusting someone who arranges salads for a living to also handle bubble wrap.
