Epicurean Frank Lloyd Wright Kitchen Utensil Series

The famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright (FLW) had a vision to bring together architecture with art, food, farm, community, and the land. The FLW Foundation and Epicurean partnered to create a collection of functional and useful prep and serve items that celebrate and preserve his revolutionary and iconic design concepts, as well as Wright’s passion for fine culinary experiences.

Materials:

Richlite is the material from which Epicurean makes its products. Hundreds of food-safe-resin soaked sheets of paper are pressed together under extreme pressure and heat, fusing the individual sheets into a solid piece of material. The final product is exceptionally strong, yet maintains the warm, natural look and feel of wood. It is lightweight, nonporous, knife friendly, and dishwasher safe. It won’t crack, split, or stain—making it a perfect material for cutting boards and earning Epicurean products worldwide recognition.

It also is environmentally friendly. The paper composite raw material comes from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified sources and/or recycled paper. 99.99% of the volatile organic compounds released by the resin are destroyed during the saturation process and never reach the atmosphere. Richlite has earned Greenguard, Rainforest Alliance, and FSC certifications.

Use and Care:

The products are dishwasher safe or may be cleaned with warm, soapy water. Cleaning with diluted bleach will not harm the product but is unnecessary. Epicurean does not recommend harsh chemicals to clean the products.
