Barcelona-based designer Francesc Vilaro designs the new Jamonero, which is a unique kitchen addition for parties or family gatherings. It is a unique ham stand that takes space into consideration with its foldable feature. It holds ham while it is being sliced and when it is not in use, it can be folded and easily tucked into a drawer.
The ham stand is usually a larger kitchen appliance and the Jamonero is made from FSC-certified beech wood with stainless steel for more support. The arm folds out and holds the ham in place using a bolt with other features including the anti-slip base that keeps it in place on the table or counter for easier cutting.
