Tokyo Cutlery Collection | A New Perspective on the Table
The inspiration behind the Tokyo Cutlery Collection comes from a city where tradition and the future coexist at every turn. Temples, gardens and traditional forms share the landscape with experimental architecture, imposing structures in concrete and glass, and technology.
This duality inspires cutlery with elongated lines, a flat profile and precise proportions, where simplicity becomes a form of expression.
A new perspective on the table.
Tokyo, Between Tradition and the Future
Few cities embody the coexistence of past and future quite like Tokyo.
The collection is born from this contrast, from the ability to combine essential forms and traditional references with architecture that looks towards the future.
TOKYO brings this approach to design into an everyday object, creating contemporary cutlery that can blend into a minimalist setting or provide contrast against more traditional elements.
Cutlery that looks back to design forwards.
Architecture Turned into Design
Contemporary architecture in Tokyo was one of the main starting points for the collection.
Precise geometries, large volumes, vertical lines and clean surfaces are all part of the cityscape. TOKYO brings some of these references to a more intimate scale: that of a piece of cutlery.
Its elongated handles and flat profile create a defined silhouette, giving proportions and continuity of line centre stage.
An architectural interpretation of an everyday object designed to become part of daily life.
Geometry Designed for the Table
TOKYO moves away from traditional silhouettes to create a more contemporary presence.
Its geometry can blend into tables with clean lines, where it complements the space without dominating it, but can also create a deliberate contrast with organic tableware, artisanal ceramics or classically inspired pieces.
The same cutlery can become part of a minimalist interior or break it up.
Four Finishes, Four Ways to Interpret Tokyo
The design of TOKYO remains recognisable across all four finishes, while each one transforms its presence on the table.
TOKYO MATTE
The most essential version of the collection. Refined and understated, it enhances the clean lines of the design and makes it easy to combine with contemporary tables and neutral tones.
TOKYO BLACK MATTE
The most graphic interpretation. Black emphasises the geometry and creates a defined contrast with light-coloured tableware, ceramics and natural materials.
TOKYO MATTE COPPER
A warmer version, where geometric precision meets the richness of copper. Particularly striking with wood, stone, ceramics and earthy tones.
TOKYO VINTAGE
The most characterful expression. Its finish brings warmth to Tokyo's contemporary lines and creates an interesting dialogue with classic and artisanal tableware and natural materials.
Four finishes. One vision of design.
Tokyo Is Also About Contrasts
One of TOKYO's defining qualities is its ability to coexist with very different elements.
With organic tableware, it creates a dialogue between curves and straight lines.
With artisanal ceramics, the precision of the cutlery contrasts with the subtle irregularities of each individual piece.
With minimalist tableware, it reinforces a more architectural aesthetic.
And alongside traditional elements, it introduces a contemporary perspective.
TOKYO does not seek to impose a single way of setting the table. It seeks to open up new possibilities.
Designed to Be Part of the Space
TOKYO is designed not only for the table, but also for the space around it.
Its architectural language works particularly well in contemporary interiors, clean-lined spaces and compositions where materials play a central role.
Cutlery that can blend into its surroundings or become a contrasting element, depending on how it is combined.
Handcrafted in Portugal
The inspiration for TOKYO comes from Japan, but each piece takes shape in Portugal.
The collection is handcrafted in Portugal, combining a contemporary approach to design with the savoir-faire of cutlery making.
The handcrafted process allows careful attention to the shapes, proportions and finishes that define each piece.
Japanese inspiration. Portuguese craftsmanship.
Cutlery Designed to Last
TOKYO starts from a contemporary aesthetic, but not from a passing trend.
Its refined forms allow it to be combined with different tableware, materials and styles as the table evolves.
A collection designed to accompany both everyday dining and special occasions, while always maintaining its own identity.
