Know before you buy
The Gorham Strasbourg dinner fork measures 7 5/8 inches in length, which is a standard size for formal dinner service.
Yes, this fork is dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the integrity of the satin finish and prevent tarnishing over time, hand washing is generally recommended for high-quality sterling silver.
The hollow handle construction allows for a substantial, ornate design without making the utensil overly heavy. At 2.5 ounces, it offers a balanced weight that feels comfortable and substantial in the hand during use.
While sterling silver does not rust like iron, it is prone to natural oxidation or tarnishing when exposed to air and moisture. You should store the fork in a tarnish-resistant cloth or chest and polish it periodically with a silver-specific cloth to keep it looking its best.
No, this fork is not oven safe. Sterling silver is a heat-conductive metal and should never be placed in an oven or near direct heat sources.
