Not sure what to get Dad for Father’s Day? This year, why not skip the ties and socks (he won’t mind!) and give him something that will last for years to come? Some fathers love to have family and friends over to try a new cheese or sample a new wine. Many dads enjoy spending time in the kitchen, crafting delicious meals for their loved ones. 

Dads who enjoy grilling, cooking, and baking will appreciate the artistry and handcrafted effort that goes into making our artisan-crafted rustic flatware, a unique matching serveware set, and handcrafted cheese knife sets.

Here is a sampling of our favorite handcrafted gift ideas for Dads who love to grill, cook, and eat.

For the dad who enjoys throwing a wine and cheese party…

Summer is a great time to host an outdoor wine and cheese party. Equip Dad's kitchen with all the things he’ll need to make him feel like the host with the most. Start with a cheese knife set that includes an assortment of different knives to make serving cheese a breeze.  

Rustic flatware is the perfect accompaniment for an assortment of artisan cheeses and rugged, earthy wines. The rustic, nascent steel square handles of this Jason Cheese Tools 4 PC Set will transport dad’s guests to a charming cottage patio in the French countryside. Our Jason stainless steel flatware collection is a favorite for its timeless style that eases into both modern and classic table settings.

Wooden trays with handle accents are another must-have for alfresco evenings.   

The Aria Scorched Wood Serving Tray with Handles is ideal for corralling an assortment of cheeses, nuts, and crackers. This wooden tray with handles has a rimmed edge, so it’s ideal for transporting food from the kitchen to the patio and back again for refills. Displayed with the Twisted Urban cheese knives set, which features a convenient cheese fork, perfect for lifting cheese from the platter to a plate.

Cream cheese boards are currently popular due to their versatility for both sweet and savory preferences. A marble board that can be placed in the refrigerator is a great choice. Dad will appreciate being able to prep ahead. Or some might prefer a hummus board? For creamy cheeses and hummus, a cheese spreader set is ideal.

The Cortar Marble Charcuterie Board is just the right size for this loaded hummus spread. With the Jason butter knife/cheese spreader 4-piece set, Dad can give all his guests a chance to sample this delicious appetizer.   

For dads who love cheese, you’ll find an assortment of handcrafted cheese knife sets, wooden trays with handle accents, and marble charcuterie boards to curate a Father’s Day gift he’ll love.

For Dads who love grilling

Chances are, if your dad loves to grill, he’ll probably have the grilling tools he needs. But when it comes time to serve up that delicious food, he’ll need serving pieces.

The Camellia Hostess Serving Set includes a three-pronged fork, a slotted spoon, a serving spoon, and a sauce or soup ladle. Crafted from stainless steel with warm antique copper handles, these pieces have enough heft and balance to serve up everything from grilled meats to vegetables and sauces.

The Camellia hostess fork is ideal for serving grilled chicken. This place setting features the matching Camellia rustic flatware set, in antique copper.

The Full Polished Stainless Steel 11” Salad Bowl is perfect for a fresh bowl of salad greens. Celia Salad Servers include a spoon and a rounded fork with three prongs. Dads will appreciate the strength and durability of this salad serving set from the Celia flatware collection.

For the dad who enjoys crafting culinary treats for the whole family to enjoy…

You’ll be helping dad up his culinary game with this Primose Green Marble Mortar & Pestle. Crafted by skilled marble artisans, each set features a smooth, polished exterior and an unpolished bowl for best results. A solid marble pestle crushes herbs and grinds spices, releasing their aromas and flavors.

Chefs like to keep salt by their cooking and food prep stations so they can enhance the flavor of their food. The Salero Marble Salt Cellar with Lid is a smart addition to Dad’s cooking station.

For the dad who loves to bake…

Marble rolling pins are a treasured tool for bakers. They are especially good for pastry doughs, because they stay cool and have weight, so rolling out buttery doughs that need to keep a cool temperature, the butter in the dough won’t melt and cause the dough to become sticky. Our Vivace white marble wood rolling pin is a unique and thoughtful gift for dads who love baking.

While Grandma may have taught Dad to bake by adding a dash of this and a spoonful of that, your dad might appreciate more precise tools. The Jason Measuring Spoon Set includes ¼ tsp, ½ tsp, 1 tsp, and 1 tbsp measuring spoons, everything a baker needs to craft delicious cakes, pies, and more.

For the dad who enjoys sharing good food with family and friends…

When it comes to gifts, the basic rule of thumb is to give them something that involves an activity that they enjoy. We already know that Dad loves to eat, so you may consider coming together as a family to get him a practical gift to fit his lifestyle. 

Handcrafted stainless steel flatware has a unique look and feel to it that will be appreciated by fathers of all ages. From the classic rustic flatware design of the Camellia flatware in antique copper (above)…

To the modern industrial style of the Jason nascent steel rustic flatware design…

Creating a luxe modern table setting with the Camellia PVD Bronze silverware set…

Or Dad may like a dramatic touch with our nature-inspired Twig flatware, shown here in a burnt black finish...

The Plateau flatware set features square handles with distinctive beveled edges and a warm, aged vintage gold patina that brings an Art Deco vibe to the table.

We would be delighted and honored if you gifted Dad a set of our handmade stainless steel flatware for Father’s Day. We hope this sampling of our artisan rustic flatware, serving pieces, cheese knife sets, wooden trays with handles, and marble charcuterie boards has opened a whole world of artisan-crafted gift ideas for you and your loved ones.

Wishing all the dads out there a very special Father’s Day from all of us at INOX Artisans.
