Samples are usually early prototypes of some of our set deisgns, or trial stamping for custom design ideas. They are usually stamped onto cutlery with surface flaws that cannot be removed, which is often difficult to photograph. Please be aware of this when purchasing a sale, seconds or sample piece. If you've not ordered a seconds or sample piece from us before, please see the 'What are samples/seconds?' section for more information.

As with all of our products, the handstamping process will ensure that each piece is absolutely unique and no two forks will ever be the same. The characteristics that define them as original mostly come from the handstamping technique. This means the wording and individual letters may not always be completely straight and will never look exactly the same as the cutlery pictured. In addition to this, the nature of stainless steel will mean that some pieces may have minimal blemishes, although we feel these only further celebrate the individualities of each item and add to the charm that makes your cutlery truly unique to you.
All measurements are approximate and taken from the widest part of the utensil. Please view all pictures to get a better idea of the shape and size of each piece.
Head: L6.5cm x W4cm

The hand stamping detail given to all of our items, as well as the nature of stainless steel, means all of our products are likely to have minor knocks and wobbles. 'Sample' pieces are usually prototype designs or designs used for social media purposes. They are usually one of a kind and share the same quirks of 'seconds' cutlery. 'Seconds' are current designs that we consider unsuitable to sell at full price as their imperfections are a little more unique. These quirks are not photographed. The images are for guidance only and the piece will have one or more un pictured flaws. These might include:
- misalignment of design (letters, words, design stamps)
- surface flaws (scratches, scuffs and/or small chips in material)
- double stamping of letters and/or design stamps
- incomplete design stamps
- bent handles and/or knife blades
- restamping where the incorrect letter has been used
- product size (length/width of item is smaller or longer than average utensil)
But hey, “imperfection is perfection to a beautiful perspective!”
Seconds and samples are not recommended for customers who are more sensitive to sensory challenges.
