The exhibition \u201cTable Manners: A Feast for the Senses<\/a>\u201d is on view at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art<\/a> through May 2026. Photo by Don Ross<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

During her childhood in Kolkata, India, it was customary for Divya Saraf to dive straight into some of the stickiest foods with her fingers. Such was the culinary tradition; she would never have asked for utensils<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But as a design<\/a> curator at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art<\/a>, Saraf admires the growing global cadre of architects and artisans who satisfy the appetite of eaters as hungry for stunning tableware<\/a> as they are for gourmet cuisine. This fall, she and cocurator Daryl McCurdy mounted a survey of cutting-edge utensils, pots and glassware<\/a> titled \u201cTable Manners: A Feast for the Senses<\/a>,\u201d on view at SFMOMA through May 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Installation
The objects in the show are arrayed along a banquet table<\/a>. On the walls, table cloths by Oakland, California\u2013based artist Lucy Stark feature her whimsical illustrations of the pieces on display. Photo by Don Ross<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Drawn entirely from the institution\u2019s permanent collection, the more than three dozen objects range from precious and limited edition to mass-produced and (relatively) affordable. Several are by 20th-century design legends, like Walter Gropius<\/a> and Josef Hoffmann<\/a>; others are by buzzy contemporary makers, like Roberto Lugo<\/a>. The gallery\u2019s fanciful wall hangings<\/a> are tablecloths<\/a> that the young Oakland, California\u2013based visual artist Lucy Stark decorated with illustrations of the designs in the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naturally, all the works comment on consumption in one form or another. When you\u2019re handed a goblet<\/a> by Geneva, Switzerland\u2013based designer Jeremy Brown that has an extra-long stem but lacks a foot, you\u2019re literally unable to set down your drink. Call it a conversation piece \u2014 high design sure to spice up any gathering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are 11 standouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Virgil Abloh for Alessi Occasional Object Utensils<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Virgil

Multidisciplinary American designer Virgil Abloh<\/a>\u2019s perforated sandblasted-stainless-steel cutlery set comprises a knife, fork and spoon on a removable carabiner that allows the group to be worn together as a fashion accessory<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHis work questioned the status quo<\/a>,\u201d McCurdy says of Abloh. SFMOMA acquired the 2022 design from Alessi<\/a> partly because of his enormous fan base. So, it\u2019s perhaps surprising that the firm limited production to just 999 numbered sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Walter Gropius, Louis A. McMillen and Katherine De Sousa for Rosenthal TAC Tea Service<\/h2>\n\n\n

Less is clearly more in this late 1960s ceramic tea service<\/a> created by Bauhaus School<\/a> founder Walter Gropius<\/a> along with associates from his Cambridge, Massachusetts, firm, the Architects Collaborative (TAC). \u201cIt\u2019s not showy,\u201d McCurdy says. But, Saraf points out, when you grab the teapot, you \u201csee the appeal in how it feels to use.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Philippe Starck Juicy Salif Citrus Reamer<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Philippe

Frenchman Philippe Starck<\/a>\u2019s iconic design from 1990 is practically a dare, thanks to documented shortcomings in what even Alessi, the manufacturer, terms a \u201csurprisingly” functional juicer. \u201cUsing it makes a huge mess, the finish tarnishes, and it tips over,\u201d McCurdy says. But infamy in industrial-design circles apparently hasn\u2019t hurt sales. For many, its undeniably thrilling space-alien look has earned the sculptural aluminum piece a permanent place in the kitchen, if not on a work counter, then on a display shelf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Edith Heath for Heath Ceramics Coupe Collection Studio Mug<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n

This was a 2011 gift to the museum from Heath Ceramics<\/a>, which just recently put its peppered-beige Sand glaze back into production. Sausalito, California, potter Edith Heath<\/a>\u2019s mid-century<\/a> design allows you to clutch a cup of coffee and a cigarette simultaneously in the same fist. That\u2019s twice the vice in one go, the curators note.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Arne Jacobsen AJ Flatware<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Arne
Photo by Don Ross<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Prolific Danish modern<\/a> architect and industrial designer Arne Jacobsen<\/a> approached surgical precision with this fiercely futuristic cutlery. The knife, in particular, evokes a scalpel, and \u201cthere\u2019s a coldness to it,\u201d Saraf says. McCurdy believes she\u2019d enjoy using the utensils for a meal \u2014 should the opportunity arise outside the museum. \u201cOnce they enter our collection,\u201d she says, \u201cit\u2019s hands off.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Natalia Criado Mucura Teapot<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Natalia<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

In Colombian Spanish, m\u00facura<\/em> refers to a rough clay jar often used to hold water. Inspired by the rounded jug, Milan-based Colombian designer Natalia Criado<\/a> used it as a point of departure for a creative leap. Criado\u2019s double vessel<\/a>, crafted in Italy, is made from silver-plated recycled brass with jasper accents. The spouts of the two pots that compose the piece join in a delicate kiss at the middle. But it’s still possible to enjoy a cup of tea. You actually pick up the whole rigid assembly by the handle and pour from the bird\u2019s mouth at the opposite end. That surprises those who \u201cread the work as an art<\/a> object,\u201d Saraf says. \u201cIt was designed to be used.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Gumdesign Swing Wine Glass<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Gumdesign

This playful stemware<\/a> was created by Laura Fiaschi and Gabriele Pardi, the Italian partners behind Gumdesign<\/a>, for artisan crystal and glass workshop ColleVilca<\/a>. It sits \u201cmore on the experimental side,\u201d Saraf notes. A glass bump centered underneath the circular foot prevents the goblet from standing upright, essentially throwing the contents askew. Managing it demands extra \u201cwork for guests\u201d and naturally curbs consumption, McCurdy says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Zaha Hadid Silver Tea and Coffee Service<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Zaha
Photo by Katherine Du Tiel<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Iraqi-British architect and designer Zaha Hadid<\/a>\u2019s swooping forms are instantly recognizable. Hadid was \u201cquite literal,\u201d Saraf notes, in elegantly miniaturizing her architecture for this sterling-silver <\/a>service. Gleaming and functional, the coveted sets are now nearly impossible to obtain, having been released as a very small edition. \u201cThe majority of them are in museum collections,\u201d McCurdy says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Joe Colombo Asimmetrico Drinking Glass<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Joe

This decidedly off-kilter 1964 goblet, marketed originally by C.J. Riedel<\/a>, is one of several masterworks in the SFMOMA collection by the revolutionary Milanese designer Cesare \u201cJoe\u201d Colombo<\/a>. The mounded foot fits nicely in the palm of your hand and actually helps prevent tipping and spills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Roberto Lugo Lil Wayne and James Baldwin Teapot<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Roberto
Photo by Don Ross<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Philadelphia-based Roberto Lugo<\/a> is best known for his colorful ceramics incorporating themes of racial and social justice<\/a>. Increasingly popular among collectors, the Afro-Latino contemporary artist sold out his show at New York gallery R & Company<\/a> last year. His pieces often feature portraits of cultural icons framed by vivid prints referencing both traditional motifs and street art. This 2022 teapot depicts rapper Lil Wayne on one side and writer and civil rights activist James Baldwin on the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soft-geometry Mirrors for Aliens<\/h2>\n\n\n

Indian-born Utharaa Zacharias and Palaash Chaudhary, of the emerging studio soft-geometry<\/a>, graduated from Savannah College of Art and Design before launching their San Francisco\u2013based operation. In 2023, they proposed this limited-edition series of assisted readymades, turning Indian thalis \u2014<\/em> steel trays with shallow compartments for food \u2014 into flashy wall mirrors hand polished to a bright shine. The name of the design, they say, plays on their \u201cnonresident alien\u201d status according to the U.S. Customs and Immigration Services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
