Sambonet's Twist features a very contemporary design that is in fact "twisted"; in this case, the handle flairs out from a square neck with a clockwise 80-degree twist. In the process, the handle also flattens, and flairs up slightly, so you have a modified trapezoidal 'cut end' when you look at the end of the forks and spoons. The twist handle is slightly rounded, so it feels great in the hand, and sits well on the table. It is one of heaviest patterns in the Sambonet line, and with its contemporary styling, with extra-long fork tines and spoon wells, will coordinate with any style of tableware, plain or complex, casual or contemporary formal. Each piece is made of top quality 18/10 Stainless Steel, and is backstamped Sambonet, which adds a luxurious touch to each piece. Sambonet Twist is designed and crafted for use in the finest restaurants, but is perfect for your home, and is completely dishwasher safe.
