Bead Design

Bead cutlery is yet another instantly recognisable design classic, harking back to Old English silversmithing traditions but infused here with a strikingly elegant neo-classical sensibility.

The familiar yet opulent beaded design – a great favourite of high-end restaurants the world over – is thought to have evolved originally through French society dining circles. It was designed to reflect the idea of a pearled inlay, matching the popular high-end jewellery fashions of the time.

At Plato Hire, our range of Bead cutlery pieces includes table knives and forks, starter and dessert forks, as well as tea, coffee, soup, dessert and serving spoons. This extremely popular line works wonderfully well at fine dining and catering functions of all sizes: whatever the occasion, these beautifully sculpted pieces are sure to add an extra layer of chic sophistication to any memorable meal service.
