edition of 500 sets each
OBJECT DESCRIPTION
Artware Editions is pleased to announce the release of its newest edition by John Gerrard entitled, Bone Cutlery, which is composed of silver-plated flatware and a set of silver-plated salad tossers.
As with much of Gerrard's current work, Bone Cutlery furthers the artist's inquiry into the underlying structures that sustain us. in this case, the frequently opaque systems intrinsic to food production and consumption by which food arrives at our tables. The handles for the Bone Cutlery flatware and the entire forms of the salad tossers are molded directly from different bones of a single goat. Gerrard collaborated closely with traditional silversmiths in the south of France to pair bone handles with classic heads so that each of the pieces is properly weighted and feels comfortable in-hand. The pieces are then plated with 33 - micron silver and have a mirror-like finish making the forms at once primal and alluring.
Bone Cutlery ships in custom silver-cloth wraps for easy and safe storage. If product is not in stock, please allows 10-12 weeks for fabrication.

The title of the editioned set suggests a lonely narrative, a moment of solitude when one might turn to drugs not for glamour or excitement, but for revelry and longing. “There is a certain magic in loneliness,” Hod explains, “you have to be alone to create.” He adds, “It’s not about drugs or glamour—it’s about the inside world, where you can dream and love and seek a greater truth—it’s about a feeling of being connected to something so human.”

Deborah Ehrlich's elegant Crystal Jelly Jar light fixture highlights this renowned glass artist's attention to superior artisanship and craft. The hand-blown shades are made from Swedish crystal that is lead-free and therefore able to be thinner and more delicate than traditional glass. Made in Sweden, each shade is hand-cut and hand-grinded to perfection. The shade is paired with a brass shade holder and porcelain base to give the piece a relaxed but elegant look. The crystal shade may be purchased separately and used with any standard fixture that is sized to accommodate a 3-1/4" shade.
