| Kirk Burkett's Sterling Silver Absinthe Grilles, Spoons and Accessories |
The well known Virginia-based artist Kirk Burkett brings his skills as a master craftsman in silver and his passion as an
absintheur together in this extraordinary range of sterling silver absinthe grilles. These highly original and beautifully worked
pieces are the first truly modern rethinking of a classic absinthe artifact in over a century, and have been greeted with acclaim
on both sides of the Atlantic .Aside from the beauty and originality of the spoons, they are supremely practical - they fit snugly
on any standard sized glass. They are an absolute delight to look at, and to use.
The original range of grilles has now been augmented by other items, including an extraordinary spoon, with a bowl fashioned
of intertwined wormwood leaves. As with the grilles, the photographs don't do this spoon justice - it's a fascinating work of
art, perhaps the pinnacle of Kirk's achievement as an artist and silversmith.
These full range of these limited-edition designs is exclusively available from The Virtual Absinthe Museum
