Important flatware care tips
Preventing flatware from becoming tarnished
Always treat your beautiful flatware with care, so that it continues to complement the aesthetics of your table arrangements. To prevent stains, deposits and discoloration in the first place, ensure that your flatware is stored correctly, in a dry and airtight place. When in storage, wrap your flatware carefully in a cotton cloth, a multilayered napkin, aluminum foil or cling film. The following tips will also help to prevent unsightly stains appearing on your flatware.
It is essential to clean flatware with clean water after cooking or using, and remove the worst of food residues before starting a dishwasher wash cycle.
To avoid tarnishing silver or stainless steel flatware, only use proper dishwashing detergent, and make sure that no dishwasher salt gets into the dishwashing cycle, as it could damage the materials used to make the flatware.
Tip:
Arrange your flatware loosely in the dishwasher, instead of bunched close together, as the water will then rinse the flatware more thoroughly.
