Sori Yanagi

Surely one of the greatest living designers.

 During hurricane Irene we had no power for almost five days.  On the very last day, my boss' wife invited the office to their house for dinner.  We helped set the table with Yanagi flatware that they had bought from the MoMa Store and once we started eating we all raved about the look and feel of the knives and forks.  They are heavy and seem to conform to your very hand.  Anne said she had the same flatware for 25 years and it was finally time to treat herself.  It is certainly worth it!  I can't wait to own a set myself... one day.
