Cutlery
Setting a beautiful table ready to host a meal for your loved ones is always a satisfying feeling. By matching cutlery with your dinnerware, you create a sleeker and more sophisticated vibe, which adds to the dining experience. Buying boxed cutlery is not a common purchase, so find beautiful pieces that are designed to last. Here are a few quick tips to find the right set for you.
How to Cut Through That Cutlery Confusion
- How many knives and forks do you need? It’s always better to buy a little extra for those larger gatherings. Most basic boxed cutlery sets can range between 16-24 pieces, including dinner and entrée knives and forks, as well as dessert spoons, soup spoons and teaspoons. Some larger sets have up to 88 pieces!
- Want more choice? Enjoy more than one set, so you can switch your everyday cutlery out according to the occasion, or if you need to cater for extra guests.
- Your cutlery should feel comfortable to hold and to eat with – not too heavy, not too light! Each size and shape offer something different.
- Both stainless steel and sterling silver are tough, durable and have antibacterial properties. They’re also low maintenance, with stainless steel able to resist oxidation at high levels.
- If you plan on buying stainless steel cutlery, check the chromium and nickel percentage, with 18/10 being the highest quality. This will ensure that cutlery retains its lustre.
- Pay attention to the cut and polish of your cutlery. Check the inside of the edges of your fork to make sure they’re not rough, and look for a smooth reflection in the bowl of your spoon. The better the quality, the longer your cutlery will last.
- Use cutlery to dress up dinnerware. Style glossy silver with a matte black plate for an ultra-modern look or elegant gold with soft neutral tones.
- A knife and fork set can also make for a wonderful housewarming or anniversary gift, or a present for a couple about to move into their first home. It’s stylish, practical and something that will serve them well for many years to come.
