In Lumezzane, a town in Italy's Lombardy region, five brothers founded the workshop that became Bugatti, and more than ninety years later the same company makes the Aladdin Antique Place Spoon. The handle is high-grade acrylic with a soft pearlized depth to it, set against 18/10 stainless steel that holds its shine through years of use. It feels substantial in the hand without being heavy, the kind of Italian flatware that turns a weeknight bowl of soup into something considered. The antique pattern reads a little softer than strictly polished flatware, so it sits comfortably with rustic pottery and with fine china alike. Dishwasher safe and made in Italy, it is built for the dinners you actually host.
