Gift for a son turning 50 and Fabulous
As I get older, I find that what matters most are beautiful memories, especially moments shared with loved ones. Eating and drinking together is often part of this. This birthday boy loves espresso and enjoys his special espresso machine. For his 50th birthday, I designed espresso spoons and a wooden box. The spoons are made from Argentium silver. They are partly forged and partly folded in a vice. The box is made of cherry wood and has two compartments, so it can be cut in two later. The birthday boy's two sons will then each have a memento of their father and his 50th birthday. Hence, the title 50/50.
More info on the working process is in my blog post Sketches of my work 7
