Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Orchard Room in Harrogate recently overhauled their menu and interior to create a more contemporary fine dining space. They needed tableware that would match this new, sophisticated identity, replacing their standard-issue cutlery with something more memorable.
"You'd be surprised how many guests have commented on the cutlery. They notice the weight and the feel of it in their hand. It’s a small touch that reinforces the quality we aim for across the board. The Abert Matisse collection was the perfect fit for our new look."
Robert Davies – Restaurant Manager

Installation and Maintenance Guide
First Use & Preparation
- Always wash cutlery thoroughly in hot, soapy water before its first use to remove any manufacturing residues.
- Inspect each piece upon arrival to ensure it's in perfect condition.
- When setting tables, handle by the narrowest part of the handle to avoid fingerprints on the blade or polished areas.
- Ensure you have enough stock to cover all your settings, plus a reserve for busy services.
Keeping It Going
- While dishwasher safe, it's best to rinse off acidic food residues (like lemon or vinegar) promptly to prevent potential staining.
- To avoid scratches, don't let knives, forks, and spoons jumble together loosely in dishwasher baskets.
- Use a soft, microfibre cloth to buff away any water spots after washing for a flawless, high-shine finish.
- Never use abrasive scouring pads or harsh bleach-based chemicals, as they can damage the polished surface.

Explore more from AbertMore Than Just Metal: The 18/10 Stainless Steel Difference
Ever wondered what '18/10' on stainless steel cutlery actually means? It's not just a technical code; it's a promise of quality. The number refers to the percentages of chromium (18%) and nickel (10%) mixed in with the steel. Think of it like a recipe for durability and shine. The chromium is the hardworking ingredient, providing an invisible shield that fights off rust and corrosion. The nickel is the artist, giving the steel its beautiful silvery lustre and high polish. This combination is why 18/10 stainless steel cutlery, like this Abert Table Knife, resists stains, stays brighter for longer, and can handle the daily punishment of a commercial dishwasher without losing its sparkle.
