Some words on our founder: Born in the metalwork heartland of England, David Mellor originally trained as a silversmith. Steeped in making from childhood, and with a strong creative impulse, his talents won him a scholarship at the Royal College of Art
David Mellor was highly unusual in combining the activities of a hands-on craftsman, designer, manufacturer and retailer. He saw the designer’s function as controlling a product through all stages, from concept to customer. A rigorous, all-encompassing approach at odds with most post-war mass manufacture
His iconic designs brought modern elegance to cutlery and won him the nickname ‘the cutlery king’. That his designs are more popular than ever is testament to his genius
