Know before you buy
This 45-piece set provides service for 8 people. It includes eight 5-piece place settings and a 5-piece serving set to complete your table.
The Skandia Zephyr set is crafted from durable 18/0 stainless steel and is dishwasher safe. While the finish is designed for regular use, we recommend avoiding harsh detergents to maintain the integrity of the black coating over time.
The set includes five essential serving pieces: a serving spoon, a pierced serving spoon, a serving fork, a sugar spoon, and a butter knife.
These pieces feature a minimalist design with oversized head parts, giving them a substantial, high-end feel in the hand. They are balanced for comfortable everyday use while maintaining a dramatic, modern aesthetic.
18/0 stainless steel is highly durable, but it can be susceptible to water spots if left to air dry. For the best results and to keep the black finish looking pristine, we recommend drying the flatware promptly after the dishwasher cycle finishes.
