Design Notes
Skye Bright Textured cutlery has a slim and elegant profile which is well balanced and comfortable to use.
The handles of Skye have flat profiles, which feature a texture inspired by the traditional silversmith’s technique of long hammer planishing. This texture gently fades towards the tapering blade of each knife and the handling faces are smooth for comfort in use. In ambient settings, light bounces off the different facets of the textured handles and the smooth knife blades.
Inspiration note: Mix and match our Skye Bright Textured cutlery and Iona Bright cutlery ranges to create a unique and personal table setting.

Design Story: Skye
Inspiration for the texture of Skye was drawn from traditional silversmithing techniques, as well as from the slim handle of the design onto which it was to be applied. The silversmith's technique of long hammer planishing accentuates the shape of the cutlery making the surface cohesive to the whole.
The flat profile of the handle provides a perfect canvas for texture, the application of which is designed to fade gently towards the tapering neck or blade of each piece. Light reflects from the many different facets to create a subtle yet eye-catching design.
