THE ART OF TABLE LAYING IN HISTORY AND CULTURE

“The home of a great collector. A treasure
in the heart of Milan
that is open to all”

Annalisa Zanni, director of the Museo Poldi Pezzoli in Milan, presents forks, knives and spoons, which are some of the most prized pieces in the museum’s collection. Each of these elegant artifacts, manufactured by different workshops, bears the crest of the respective client. Although designed for use, these utensils clearly conveyed the social status of their owner.
