Thanks to the success of the Wright Brothers and the later design of fixed wing airplanes, hunger and fascination for all things aviation found its way to popular 20th century design, from advertisements to books, clothing designs to even table settings. This beautiful silver-plated egg cup and spoon set, dating to the early 1910s, is a perfect example of the influence aviation had on everyday design.
