The lobster is served, the cracker is passed, and everyone leans in to retrieve the last sweet morsel from a claw. This is the sort of seafood service that makes the meal feel like an occasion before anyone picks up a tool.
The nine-piece set includes one substantial hinged cracker, six large picks, and two smaller picks, arranged in a fitted wooden presentation box with pink fabric lining.
Look closely at the metalwork. The large picks have finely textured handles crossed by raised spiral bands, while the cracker’s handles carry matching detail. The two smaller picks have their own intricate surface pattern. It is the care put into these small details, along with the matched presentation, that gives the set its character. The serrated cracker jaws grip a shell; the picks and their narrow ends reach into claws and other tight spaces.
A beautiful addition to a coastal table, a lobster supper, or a collection of antique dining nine-piece set: one cracker, six large picks, and two smaller picks.
