Know before you buy
No, the Mami cutlery set is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the mirror polish finish and protect the integrity of the stainless steel, we recommend hand washing with a soft cloth and mild detergent.
Monobloc construction means the knife is forged from a single piece of stainless steel rather than having a separate handle and blade. This design provides a seamless, solid feel in the hand and increases the overall durability of the knife.
The hollow handle design allows for a substantial, comfortable grip without the pieces feeling overly heavy or cumbersome. It creates a balanced weight distribution that makes the cutlery feel ergonomic and easy to maneuver during a meal.
The Mami set is designed to be versatile enough for both. Its soft, sinuous shapes and mirror-polished finish offer enough sophistication for formal dinner parties, while the durable 18/10 stainless steel construction stands up well to daily use.
The 24-piece set includes six table spoons, six table forks, six table knives, and six coffee spoons. It does not include dedicated salad forks or dessert spoons, though the table forks and coffee spoons are designed to handle most standard courses.
