If you’re in the market for new flatware, you may be overwhelmed by all the options out there. There are size options, style choices, material considerations and even handle design to consider. And then there’s the price tag: high-end flatware can easily run hundreds of dollars for a full set. But, if you’re willing to shell out the extra cash, there are plenty of luxury sets to be found that will add a touch of elegance to your table.
These sets are made with high-quality materials and offer sophisticated details that are sure to impress your guests. From sleek modern designs to classic silver and gold, we’ve found a range of luxury cutlery sets that will suit every taste.
Traditionally, silver was the flatware of choice for the rich, and a mark of status. While that trend has largely shifted to stainless steel, sterling silver still exists and is coveted for its lustrous finish and long-lasting durability. Companies like Christofle, Puiforcat and Versace are renowned for their sterling flatware, and many of their utensils have become family heirlooms.
But if you’re looking for a more affordable luxury option, we’ve rounded up some other standouts. For example, this place setting from the French company Dubost combines the distinctive bee motif that distinguishes Laguiole flatware with acrylic handles available in a spectrum of colors to match any aesthetic. The utensils are crafted of stainless steel and have a dishwasher-safe finish. The 24-piece set includes enough for six place settings and comes with a wooden tray to store it all.
Another option is this classic silver flatware from Towle, an American company that has been in business for more than 150 years. This Old Master pattern is a favorite of Archer-Coite, who notes that its “vintage beauty works with any design style.” It’s also a great alternative to a traditional sterling silver set, since the fork and spoon have stainless-steel heads, while the knife is solid sterling.
Alternatively, you could try this contemporary place setting from Mercer, which has been in business for over 60 years. This set features a mix of stainless-steel and black-oxide-finished silver for an eclectic look that will complement both modern and traditional dinnerware. The utensils are lightweight, with thin fork tines and shorter knife blades for easy handling.
Finally, this modern-style set from Nestroots is a minimalist’s dream. The hand-hammered 18/10 stainless-steel utensils have a lightly burnished finish that’s both durable and subtle. And the brushed handles are lightweight for comfortable use, especially when holding a full dinner plate.
Designed by architect and industrial product designer Kaksh Studio, these utensils have a distinctive shape that’s both modern and minimalist. The ringed handles are both decorative and functional, making them easy to spot in your drawer (and even easier to pick out from the crowd at a party). Plus, the dishwasher-safe stainless-steel flatware is also extremely sturdy.סכו״ם יוקרתי
