Stepping into the studio, the clink of metal and the scent of polishing compound replace the city’s humid air. Light from a front window catches the curved lines of spoon handles and fork tines laid out like a small, salvaged fleet. You choose a piece, feeling the weight and history of the object before you cut, shape and finish it into something new.
