Ja Manafaru – Travelers Choice Award 2017

The world's largest travel review site, TripAdvisor, has just released its world's best hotel listings for 2017. The 15th annual Travellers' Choice Awards is founded on guest reviews and feedback and amongst the globally recognised properties, JA Manafaru, a stunning island beach resort in the Maldives, owned and managed by JA Resorts & Hotels has taken 10th spot.

The island features seven dining venues, from the White Orcid, which serves Japanese, Chinese and Thai, to the Cellar, giving visitors a chance to experience haute cuisine, with perfectly paired wines.

Studio William is a proud supplier of the luxurious Island getaway resort. With two of our ranges featured, our Karri range, which features a standing knife, and the Redwood range, with concave handles.

Based around simplicity and sophistication, the knives are designed to stand up on the table, without falling over, akin to the great Basswood.

These giants have a unique relationship with lightning, as they need to be struck in order to stop growing. The Cherokees believe that this tree is a symbol of balance. Our Redwood cutlery pays homage to those traits, with a unique handle feel.
