Aspidistra Nickel and Wood Grip Salad Server Pair

A matched fork and spoon with wood grips make tossing and serving salad at the table easy and good-looking.

Aspidistra is a matched fork and spoon with polished nickel heads and a short wood grip at the top of each handle. The grips make it easy to toss and lift salad, pasta or vegetables, and the pair rests neatly in a bowl without sliding in. Use it at a dinner table, on a buffet line or at a hotel breakfast station.

Each piece is about 7 in wide and 5 in deep, a compact size that suits a medium bowl or a small platter rather than a large salad bowl. The polished nickel catches the light and the warm wood grips soften the metal, so the pair looks right in a modern kitchen or a traditional dining room.

Where to use it

• Dining table: Serves salad, pasta or roasted vegetables at a dinner party.
• Buffet or catered event: Gives each bowl a matched pair so the line looks coordinated.
• Restaurant or cafe: Adds a polished detail to family-style plates.
• Kitchen: Stays in a drawer or crock with other servers.

Planning notes

Match the servers to a wood or white bowl so the nickel and wood both show. A bowl up to about 12 in across works best, because the heads are compact and a deeper bowl would hide them.

Rest them across a small plate beside the bowl rather than leaving them in the food, which keeps the metal clean and the table tidy between servings.

Who this is not for

• Not for outdoor use: we recommend it for indoor rooms.
• Not for use with nonstick cookware, which the metal edges can scratch.
• Wood grips should not be soaked in water.

Care

Wipe clean; hand wash only. Dry the wood grips promptly and wipe the nickel to keep it bright.
