There’s something pleasing about resin-handled flatware; the handles are warm to the touch and are informal enough for everyday use. Here are our favorites.
Above: From English master David Mellor: the simple Provencal Cutlery is crafted of stainless steel and resin with brass rivets; $101.25 for a five-piece place setting at Heath Ceramics. Above: The Sabre Vintage Bistrot Grey Flatware Set is made in France with colored resin handles and an antique metal finish; $65 at March.
Above: Designed in the 1930s by a trio of architects, the stainless Alessi Serie 40 Flatware features dark blue, almost black, high-strength plastic handles. You can purchase a giant set piece by piece, starting at $57 for six coffee spoons at Alessi. Above: Dubost Ivory Languiole Flatware with ivory-colored handles and tempered stainless steel is $70 for a set of five at Sur La Table. Above: Gingko Le Prix Flatware, available in several different colors, is $50.59 for a 20-piece flatware set (service for four) at Amazon. Above: The Sabre Basic 5-Piece Place Setting is made of stainless steel and acrylic handles (shown in gray); $76.50 for the set at Yvonne Estelles. Above: Another line from Jean Dubost is the Pradel 1920 Flatware, shown in black, available through Jean Dubost. Above: From Italian flatware brand Mepra, the Fantasia Flatware Set, shown in China White, have resin handles; $75 for a set of five at March. Above: Pottery Barn makes a set of bistro-style flatware. The Cafe Flatware 20-Piece Set in Black has resin bakelite handles; $99 for the set. Above: The Argent Orfévres St. Lauren 5-Piece Place Setting with tortoise shell printed resin handles; $100 for the set at Williams-Sonoma. Above: Designed in 1960 by Peter Raacke, the Mono-E flatware is made of brushed steel with ebony handles; a five-piece setting of Mono-E Flatware is $384.20 at the Modern Room.
