Cutlery
Cutlery for the professional user represents an extremely important role of every dining table. When choosing a suitable line, in addition to the looks, one can choose based on a few other key features:
QUALITY
The quality of cutlery is determined by the choice of production material or the quality of stainless steel - this is distinguished by the content of chromium and nickel and is indicated by two values separated by "/" (14/0, 18/0, 18/10...). The first value represents the chromium content, which gives the stainless steel durability and long-term resistance, and the second value represents the nickel content, which increases the shine of the stainless steel and provides it with resistance to corrosion - the higher the value in the record, the greater the content of this metal.
THICKNESS
The thickness of cutlery is primarily determined by the method of its production. For stamped cutlery, the thickness of the final product is determined by the thickness of the sheet metal from which it is stamped. For forged cutlery, the thickness of the final product is determined by the thickness of the initial piece of stainless steel and the intensity of forging. The greater the thickness, the more the cutlery will be rigid and resistant to deformation. At the same time, greater thickness means higher weight and better ergonomic fit, features that evoke a premium feel for the user.
FINAL TREATMENT
The final treatment of the cutlery determines its appearance. Lines that are not in the color of stainless steel are treated with the PVD (=Physical Vapor Deposition) process, in which a thin layer of solid metals is applied to the surface, which, in addition to the selected color, also ensures high surface resistance and hardness. Lines with a non-shiny look are treated with a sandblasting process called Stone Wash, which gives each line a unique and vintage look.
