The 1930 Grand Prix cutlery collection is one of the most profound works of globally iconic Danish designer Kay Bojesen.
In the 1930s, Kay Bojesen set out to create a successful cutlery range suitable for both everyday use and special occasions, with the aim that these pieces could be passed down from generation to generation as treasured timeless heirlooms.
At the Milan Triennale in 1951, his silver cutlery won first prize – the Grand Prix – and the state of the collection known by this name changed. After the win, the best was introduced in a matte steel version and in 2011 the series was expanded with several polished steel utensils.
The Grand Prix cutlery set from Kay Bojesen consists of 4 parts: a dinner fork, a dinner knife, a dinner spoon and a teaspoon. The cutlery set is made from polished stainless steel and is perfect if you want to give this as a gift, or for someone moving into a new home, or perhaps as an addition to your own existing dinnerware collection.
