Mono -e is mono -a modern flatware with ebony handles. The mono -a cutlery was designed by Peter Raacke in 1959 and is considered a classic modern flatware as it continues to have popularity to win design awards around the world. The mono -a cutlery is significant in that it was among the first designs of stainless steel flatware to be pure in its form and function. Each piece is machine made in Germany with the finest 18/8 stainless steel and hand sanded to a fine satin finish by experienced craftsman. Adding the ebony handles to make the mono -e creates a modern flatware to accommodate a different mood, mixing well in a modern rustic decor, in a picnic basket or on a yacht. The mono -e is a high end flatware and a modern luxury for those who appreciate excellent quality and great design.
