Vinci 24-Piece Flatware Set Matte With Wood Canteen Box

• "Nature is the source of all true knowledge. She has her own logic, her own laws, she has no effect without no cause nor invention without necessity." - Leonardo Da Vinci
• The new Vinci cutlery line was born from a moment of pure inspiration and aims to represent the perfect relationship of symbiosis between nature and the human being.
• Strongly characterized by its elegant silhouette, the balance of the pieces promotes an odd comfort in its handling, as a result of an in-depth ergonomic study. Based on a trendily modern style, it has roots in the leaf-shaped design of the traditional north Australian tree Cupaniopsis Anacardioides where its organic shape reveals a flawless harmony with the modernism presented in the current international trends of tableware.
• The current project was the result of a partnership between Herdmar and the Design School of the University of Minho, which aims to promote a more pragmatic and mutually evolving development bringing the academic community closer to national industry.
• Material: 18/10 Stainless Steel
