As with many things, the composition of a cutlery set depends above all on the use you make of it and your eating habits. However, we recommend starting with table cutlery such as table knives, table forks, table spoons and coffee or dessert spoons. Then, if you're a fish lover, fish cutlery might be useful, as might steak knives if you regularly eat meat, or dessert cutlery if you have a sweet palate.
How many Place Settings do people normally use?
The number of place settings in a menagere may vary according to the manufacturer and the composition of the set. However, a standard cutlery set generally comprises a complete set of cutlery for 6 to 12 people. It's important to choose a cutlery set according to your specific needs. If you live alone or as a couple, a set for 6 people may be sufficient. If you have a large family or like to entertain guests, a set for 12 may be more appropriate. It's also worth considering the specific uses for which you'll need extra cutlery, such as steak, fish or dessert cutlery.

How do you take care of a cutlery set?
First of all, avoid using abrasive or corrosive chemicals when cleaning your cutlery, as this can damage the material. Instead, opt for products such as Silver Flash specifically designed for cleaning silver. When not in use, store your cutlery in a cutlery drawer or one of our specially designed cases or chests to avoid scratches and damage. Remember, cutlery tends to resist better when used regularly. Use your cutlery frequently to prevent parts from deteriorating over time.
