Carrol Boyes Functional Art

With metal as her medium, South Africa's most famous designer adorns forks and knives with mermaids, ram's horns, and other mythological icons. Her huge and practical range of tableware, desk accessories, and furniture is on display in this flagship store, where you'll find everything from graceful cast-aluminum doorknobs in the shapes of male and female figures to pewter Hanukkah menorahs. Most popular and addictively collectible are Boyes's serving utensils, which you'll find gracing the dining table of any good South African hostess.
