In the time Model 20 has been introduced into the market (1951) it was a revolution. It represented a new cutlery generation: short blades, short fork-finish and a small oval spoon-form. Model 20 is an evergreen today. In the beginning of the 70es it entered the permanent collection from the Museum of Modern Art.
