Know before you buy
The set provides service for 12 people, including a dinner fork, salad fork, dinner knife, dinner spoon, and teaspoon for each setting. Additionally, it includes five serving pieces to complete the collection.
While 18/0 stainless steel is durable and dishwasher safe, it is best practice to remove the flatware from the dishwasher promptly after the cycle ends. Avoid leaving it soaking in water or acidic food residue to maintain the integrity of the satin finish.
The Essex Satin set features a clean, sophisticated silhouette designed for a balanced feel in the hand. It is substantial enough for formal dining while remaining comfortable for daily use.
The satin finish is specifically chosen for its refined, matte appearance, which is generally more forgiving than a high-polish mirror finish. It effectively hides minor surface scratches and fingerprints that typically accumulate during regular use.
Yes, the minimalist design is intentionally versatile. Its clean lines allow it to blend seamlessly with casual dinnerware, yet it remains elegant enough to anchor a formal table setting.
