Know before you buy
The 18/10 designation refers to the composition of 18% chromium and 10% nickel. This high-quality stainless steel is exceptionally resistant to rust and corrosion, ensuring the flatware maintains its mirror finish and structural integrity over years of daily use.
While the bead-edge is an ornate, textured detail, it is designed to be smooth and integrated into the handle. It does not create deep crevices that would trap food, making it just as easy to clean as a standard flat handle.
This 50-piece set provides service for eight people. It includes the standard place settings plus a selection of specialized serving utensils to complete your table arrangement.
Yes, the Countess set is fully dishwasher safe. To preserve the mirror finish over time, we recommend avoiding harsh detergents and ensuring the pieces are not crowded in the basket during the wash cycle.
The high-quality stainless steel is naturally resistant to tarnishing, so it does not require specialized polishing. Simply washing and drying the pieces promptly after use will keep the mirror finish looking bright and reflective.
