Made of [stainless steel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fusion-driver) with a slick-as-ice design, it is the Anna Wintour of [winter tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scandinavian-edition-jackets). Designed by Troels Seidenfaden, this Danish collaboration is definitely a success. The Shelton Ice Scraper may look too good to use, but this hefty tool is just as sturdy as it is chic.
