Oyster Board

Annabelle Daoust

This functional object is the result of a reflection about craft and design, functional and aesthetic, as well as the boundaries of distinct practices and the way they intermingle. The curves of the board are an inspiration of the oyster itself. Designed to be set on a standard dinner table, the oyster-shucker works in a standing position, at working station height. The board serves as an oyster tray and a condiment rack. The Oyster Board is designed for kitchen parties where guests and their host gather around the board for an enjoyable evening.
