Know before you buy
No, this collection is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the integrity of the cloisonné lacquer and the silver-plated finish, each piece should be hand-washed with a soft cloth and mild detergent.
The lacquer finish is exceptionally resilient and designed to withstand regular use. However, because it is a decorative element, it should be handled with the same care as fine jewelry to prevent scratching or damage.
The 5-piece set includes the standard essentials for a single place setting: a dinner fork, a dinner knife, a table spoon, a salad fork, and a coffee spoon.
Yes, the Talisman collection is designed to be modular. You can supplement your initial place settings with additional serving pieces or expand your collection over time to accommodate larger gatherings.
No, the set does not include a storage case. We recommend storing your flatware in a dedicated anti-tarnish chest or a lined drawer organizer to protect the silver plating and the decorative lacquer inlays.
Yes, personalization options are available for this collection. Please contact customer support or consult with a specialist to discuss engraving possibilities for your set.
