Crit

Today we had a crit on our initial research into our given word, mine being cutlery. 

• "You could look at how silverware is advertised" 
• "History could work well, perhaps look if wealthy familiws have any famous brands for example. Maybe see if any family members have any cutlery they use on special occasions?"
• "Silverware tends to be a social status in terms of wealth or a family name. Look at their importance? (as you mentioned class" 
• "Look at advertising and branding" 
• "You could look at the difference between cutlery within classes? Within history? How it would change for wealthier families?" 
• "Interesting idea, look at modern hallmarks/more classic/traditional- interesting to see the progression/differences-Industrial revolutions? - How hallmarks  are produced." 
• "Look at the origins of cutlery-where they came from/started as (the history) or knifes-weapons (hunting)" 
• "Look into the phrase 'silver spoon" 

I think looking into the origins of cutlery could be interesting and looking at different cutlery across the world. Overall, the feedback has got me thinking!
