Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
A contemporary bistro in Bristol wanted to refresh its tabletop presentation to match a new, locally-sourced menu that focused on refined simplicity. Their existing cutlery was mismatched and felt cheap, detracting from the high-quality food.
"We needed cutlery that felt as good as our food tastes. The Abert Matisse knives are stunning. They have a lovely weight, and their sleek design fits our modern aesthetic perfectly. It’s a small change that has made a huge difference to the perceived value of our dining experience."
Samuel Jones – Owner, The Clifton Larder
The investment contributed to a notable increase in positive customer feedback, specifically mentioning the 'classy atmosphere' and 'attention to detail'.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always wash cutlery thoroughly in hot, soapy water before its first use.
- When using a dishwasher, place knives in a cutlery basket with the blades pointing down for safety.
- Ensure your dishwasher's rinse aid is topped up to help prevent water spots on the polished surface.
- Store in a lined cutlery drawer or tray to avoid unnecessary scratches and preserve the finish.
Keeping It Going
- To maintain the mirror finish, polish each dessert knife with a soft, dry microfibre cloth after washing.
- Avoid using harsh scouring pads, steel wool, or abrasive cleaners which will scratch the surface.
- Rinse off remnants of acidic foods (like lemon or vinegar) if the cutlery isn't being washed immediately.
- Regularly check your stock to ensure you have complete sets, replacing any missing items promptly.

Explore more from AbertWhy 18/10 Stainless Steel is the Professional's Choice
Ever wondered what '18/10' on cutlery actually means? It’s not just a number; it’s a guarantee of quality. The '18' stands for 18% chromium content, which is the key ingredient that gives the steel its incredible rust and stain resistance. The '10' stands for 10% nickel, and this is what provides that deep, silver-like lustre and added durability against the acids found in many foods.
Think of it like a top-tier waterproof jacket. The chromium is the tough, water-repellent outer layer that stands up to the storm of daily use and washing. The nickel is the soft, comfortable lining that not only feels better but also adds an extra layer of protection. This combination means your dessert knife will resist pitting, and staining, and will keep its brilliant shine for far longer, service after service.
Who Should Buy This?
- Fine Dining Restaurants: To complement exquisite dishes and enhance the overall guest journey from start to finish.
- Boutique Hotels: To add a touch of five-star class to your restaurant, room service, and afternoon tea offerings.
- Premium Event Caterers: Provide your clients with stylish, high-quality cutlery that matches the importance of their wedding or corporate event.
