Love It or Hate It? Flatware Wall Art

For those of you who don't get your flatware fix when it's on your dining room table, may I suggest the Wisteria Flatware Wall Art ($499)? Handpainted on canvas, these oversized utensils will definitely make a statement. The question is: Is this a statement you want to make?

Tromp L'Oeil at it's best! SO FAB. Hysterical in a modern, casual kitchen.

I'm surprised that so many people hate these...I think they're pretty and quirky and would make me smile.

I like them too, Katie Jane.

I would style them in a kitchen though. And not with any space between them. I would put them closer together on a wall opposite of a stove.

If I sit with my back to these, all I'm gonna think about as i am chomping down my food is that I'm gonna be attacked any moment now from the back! Def don't want to be terrorized when having dinner!

I think they are cool, but definitely suited to a restaurant / deli and not necessarily in a home.

Quirky and fun. What's not to love. Really.

It reminds me of a Filipino diningroom/kitchen stereotype that there'd always be a huge wooden spoon and fork displayed in it. Though our house doesn't have any, I've seen tons that do. It's kinda cute.

My mom had something like this in the 80s but they were wooden.

It looks a bit 1990's to me.

Brisque, it totally reminds me of the huge wooden spoons/forks, too, but in a different context - all my mom's friends had those in their gold and green late-70's suburban kitchens when I was growing up!

I agree with Sunday. Better in a restaurant.

I kinda like the concept, but I hate the execution.

I would prefer these much, much smaller, on three separate square canvas pieces, as original drawings (of utensils in a different style; simpler, without the ornamentation).

They're actually nice--in an artistic way. They look 3D!!

Honestly, I'm intimidated because small flatware on the wall might be okay, but these bad boys look to be about my size, in terms of height. No, thank you!

The artwork is amazing but it's not something I'd hang in my home.
