The Flora Vulgaris collection has an unmissable link with Nature. The name alludes to the rather ‘wild’ and intuitive way in which the natural silhouettes of the cutlery have been given shape. Forks like branched twigs, spoons featuring endless leaf shapes and knives looking like razor shells. The colours, the material, the design, and the interplay of lines leading to a perfect imperfection. The designed by Roos van der Velde. The cutlery’s brushed steel is extremely durable and suitable for even the most intensive use by top chefs. It acquires its own natural way, and therefore its unique identity.

What child doesn't long for a tree fort? Our yard doesn't have quite the right tree for a treehouse - so, instead we've constructed a twig teepee under our old apple tree. This twig fort is used daily, with a table and seats made from stumps, and scarlet runner beans planted all around in order to provide extra shade during the hotter summer days.
