Sets of thai bronze and ebony cutlery , some are bamboo style, some have an embossed temple goddess, some elephants, they are so nice to use I should use them more
for everyday I just use an italian stainless steel set .
I have a fave old german kitchen knife , hideously expensive, double edged so it cuts straight down , young seagoon broke the tip ( he busted a whole heap of stuff while he was here 🤔 )
They all sound like they came from exotic places instead of your local k-mart. I do have a nice set of cutlery that was given to us as a wedding present from my work place. Nothing amazing but they mean something to me.
The italian set was new from an op shop, I think it must have been a nonna’s special set. My first set when I moved out of home was from Forges, cheap but well made. I only gave away the last of the pieces to the op shop last year, they were in a draw and was never going to use it again. I also had a bendigo pottery dinner set which was hand made and a bit wonky. 😂 every damn plate and bowl was wonky
I love Bendigo pottery. I have several items in the blue and some I’m about to use tonight. I think back in the day you could only get some ugly brown colour and khaki.
This stuff was light brown and khaki, just awful. Heavy and wonky and ugly. I threw it out and got an ordinary set from a homewares shop, that all broke. Next set was froma church bazaar, a 1960s white with green bamboo design. Huge set, $20 in 1990s money. That’s all gone too. Now I just use ikea or thai celadon
