Black Stainless Steel Cutlery – Matte Finish Flatware by 96 KURO, Oxidized Black, Made in Japan | Dinner & Dessert Utensils – Spoons & Forks (Dessert Fork)

96 KURO is a Japanese-made flatware series that blends quiet craftsmanship with minimalist design, made for those who appreciate subtle beauty in everyday tools. Each piece is finished using a proprietary oxidation technique developed by 96 KURO. This original process creates a deep matte black surface without any paint, coating, or plating—preserving the raw feel of stainless steel while enhancing both its appearance and durability. Beyond aesthetics, the oxidized surface offers increased resistance to rust and greater surface strength, making these utensils ideal for long-term daily use. Over time, the color will gently fade and evolve, creating a rich patina that reflects your daily rituals. Like your favorite pair of jeans, each utensil develops its own character through use—a sign of authenticity and quiet luxury. Crafted in Sanjo, Japan, a town renowned for its metalworking heritage, 96 KURO utensils are dishwasher safe and designed for a lifetime of practical beauty.
