06-025. Jens Quistgaard
Salad bowl and utensils
Dansk Designs
USA, c. 1958
Teak
Signed with manufacturer's mark and designer's initials

Quistgaard salad bowls tend to be a dime a dozen, but I thought the serving utensils that accompanied this set were interesting. Like much of Quistgaard's work, their design is based on an ancient form updated with an extremely clean and modern edge.
