Mellor’s name is so synonymous with quality cutlery that it is easy to forget that his was the vision behind many other world famous designs.  By also featuring David Mellor’s iconic Traffic Light System alongside his desirable jewellery like ‘Pride’ cutlery the exhibitions demonstrates the versatility of Mellor’s work and the influence his designs have had on British culture.  From machine tools to street furniture, typewriters to tableware, Mellor’s virtuoso design extends far beyond the exquisite cutlery for which he is best known.

From 1953 to the modern era
‘Pride’ cutlery was Mellor’s first and most elegant cutlery design.  This acknowledged design classic has been in continuous production since 1953 and has been the recipient of numerous design awards.  It has since been joined by large selection of ground breaking cutlery designs – each more striking than the next.

Each of David Mellor’s many cutlery ranges represents the pinnacle of cutlery design and manufacture and is the tableware of choice for any discerning yacht owner.  If you are interested in investing in a true design classic for your yacht visit David Mellor to view all available designs.
