The first step to keeping your silver cutlery sparkling is to treat it gently. Ideally, clean them after each use with a soft cloth to remove food residues and avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the delicate silver surface.
Your Christofle silver cutlery is completely dishwasher-safe. However, to prevent repeated use from oxidising your cutlery, we recommend that you only use washing powders that do not contain chlorine or citric acid (avoid gels and liquids that often contain chlorine, as well as "lemon perfumes" containing citric acid. Avoid multi-purpose tablets).
Christofle has also developed a range of cleaning products for your silverware: the Silver Care range.
Put your forks in a warm bath of soapy water. Scrub gently with a soft toothbrush to remove any oxidation that may have appeared between the teeth.
Avoid exposing your knives to damp for long periods. Dry them immediately after washing to prevent any marks from forming on the blade of the knife.
Every need has a corresponding remedy. Make your choice based on which piece needs to be cleaned or your preferred use.

To dive into our care secrets, please explore our blog on how to perfect the polishing ritual:
Unlike oxidation, the patina on silver cutlery is a natural phenomenon that develops with regular use. Every scratch, every mark tells a story, giving a unique soul to each piece of cutlery.
The natural patina also reduces the need for frequent maintenance. By using your silver cutlery regularly, you will develop its character and also add authentic beauty to every meal.
Christofle celebrates this patina, recognising that it adds aesthetic and historical value to each piece.
Porcelain and glass are made for everyday use!
For porcelain, handle with care. Use a low-temperature (eco) cycle with powder detergent, store with paper between pieces, and avoid stacking too many.
Pieces with gold or silver decoration are not dishwasher or microwave safe.
For crystal, use a delicate cycle at a maximum of 40°C/104°F without detergent to maintain its clarity.
The dishwasher can be used to maintain the brilliance of your Christofle silverware, provided a few essential precautions are followed.
Before first use, wash each piece by hand with a mild liquid detergent free from synthetic fragrances, particularly citrus or lemon extracts. When dishwashing, use only powders without chlorine or citric acid, avoiding gels, liquids, and multi-purpose tabs.
Ensure your dishwasher settings are adapted to water hardness, as excessive limestone can be corrosive, and avoid using silverware during the first cycle after adding regenerating salt. Certain foods such as eggs, lemon, mustard, and fish may cause discoloration, so a light pre-rinse is recommended after contact.
For optimal care, do not wash antique knives (produced before 1968) in the dishwasher.
At the end of the cycle, open the door slightly to release steam and dry pieces if needed.
Avoid washing silver alongside crystal glassware, and always separate sterling silver from stainless steel to preserve its shine and integrity.
Christofle picture frames require minimal care to preserve their refined appearance. A simple wipe with a soft silver polishing cloth or polishing gloves is enough to remove dust and light tarnishing.
Take care to avoid any wooden elements when cleaning, as they may be more sensitive to moisture or abrasion.
By keeping your frames in a dry, dust-free environment, they will maintain their brilliance and elegance for years to come.
Crafted in sterling silver (92.5%), Christofle jewelry is designed to shine with lasting elegance.
When not worn, store each piece in its anti-tarnish box to protect it over time. To revive the shine of frequently worn jewelry, use Christofle’s dedicated care products: a polishing cloth or gloves for smooth surfaces,
and the Silver Flash solution for pieces with links or intricate details.
Avoid immersing clasps, as they may contain steel elements, and always rinse with clean water after cleaning.
