Memphis Butter Knives – Set of 2

€175
Tax included. Shipping calculated at checkout.

This set of two butter knives is carefully crafted from fusion glass by artisans in the south of France, with a smooth finish on the top that contrasts with the rough, textured underside. Each silhouette is hand-cut, resulting in two distinct, sculptural pieces that work as butter spreaders, serving tools, or standalone design objects. Inspired by Ettore Sottsass’ radical approach to reimagining everyday objects, each knife balances function with expressive form. 

Set of 2 utensils with different dimensions.
