Curatorial note

A single applied disc identifies this teaspoon as Amarres Disco, the pattern named for that device. It is among the everyday pieces of the line, the disc the one note distinguishing it.

The applied disc recurs across the Amarres Disco flatware so that pieces of different functions read as a coordinated set, the teaspoon the most common member. The design is clean and modern, the disc doing all the decorative work.

The design has been reissued. Original-period examples are the collectible target, and complete Amarres Disco settings come to market only occasionally.
