Know before you buy
No, these spoons are not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the mirror-polished finish, we recommend hand washing them with a soft cloth and mild detergent.
The set features two distinct designs: the original 1906 version, which has a side-on bowl, and a modern version, which features a coaxial bowl. Both versions maintain the same high-quality 18/10 stainless steel construction.
The original version measures 8.25 inches in length, while the modern version is slightly longer at 8.5 inches.
While the spoons are crafted from durable 18/10 stainless steel, their polished finish and historical design make them better suited for special occasions or formal dining settings where you want to showcase their aesthetic appeal.
Yes, the set of six includes both the original side-on bowl design and the modern coaxial bowl design, allowing you to enjoy both variations of Hoffmann's iconic work.
