The knife rest is a small but indispensable table accessory that serves to place table knives in a safe and hygienic way. In addition to being functional, a knife rest can become a decorative element that enriches the aesthetics of your mise en place.
There are numerous types of knife rests, each with different characteristics and styles:
Blade-shaped: Symbolizes the knife itself and can be made of different materials, such as wood, ceramic or metal.
Block-shaped: Usually made of wood or ceramic, these knife rests have a hole or slot to insert the knife blade.
Animal-shaped: A fun and original option, perfect for more informal tables. Knife rests in the shape of a cat, cane, elephant and many other animals are found.
Object-shaped: they can represent any object, from fruit to vegetables, through to musical instruments or everyday objects.
Modern and minimalist: Made of materials such as stainless steel or glass, these knife rests adapt to more contemporary furnishing styles.

View AllGolden Murano Glass Bottle by Carlo Moretti from the 1970s
By Carlo Moretti
Located in Milano, MI
Murano glass bottle with gold inserts, made by Carlo Moretti in the 70s.
Measures: Ø cm 5, H cm 23
Carlo Nason, born in Murano in 1935 from one of the oldest glassmaking families on the island, he was a great master glassmaker. He grew up attending the glass masters who work in the family furnace, appropriating the most refined techniques of glass art, demonstrating an innovative and planning attitude that he employed in the field of design, but referring to tradition.
In 1925 the Nason Moretti company was founded by the Nasone brothers, specializing in the production of furnishing accessories and tableware, where the mastery of the most refined Murano techniques is integrated with a modern vision and careful chromatic research.
In 1955 Umberto Nason created an innovative project of two-tone bowls and glasses that earned him the Compasso d'Oro award. In the 1960s, with the second generation of the family, there was a great development of the company which still maintained its characteristic vocation for experimentation. In the 1980s he looked at lighting with postmodern reinterpretations of designed lights, with the Carlo Moretti Studio line and the series of collectible goblets and glasses.
Since the 1990s, the business has focused on new collections conceived in a modern and design-oriented key. Carlo Moretti of Venice, founded by Carlo in 1958 in Murano, passed to new ownership in 2013, but it is still an important company today due to its constant relationship with design. The company is known for the beauty and elegance of Murano glass, arriving not only in the tables of the most important families, but also in the modern tables of today. Worked with ancient and secret techniques, Nason Moretti glasses...
