Designer's thoughts
Cutlery refers to the tableware used for eating, such as knives, forks, and spoons, at Western dining tables. It is high-quality tableware that was primarily loved by the nobility. This cutlery motif has been used to create a unique hairpin with a vintage feel. As cutlery is classified as a blade, it is also used as a talisman or protective sword, so it is recommended to wear it as a talisman. In France, it is customary to give a cutlery set as a wedding gift. It is a classic gift and makes a perfect present for a special someone.
