Tavern Cutlery: The taste of a Greek getaway

Imagine a tiny Greek village on a hill, the kind you can only reach on foot or by a rickety donkey trail. There is no sign of modern life here, only the distant sound of waves and the smell of the sea in the air. At the heart of this hidden gem is a small tavern, its whitewashed walls glowing in the golden evening light. The host, a cheerful man with a belly as big as his smile, welcomes you like an old friend. Even before you ask, he pours you a glass of local wine, on the house, of course.

This is the feeling we captured with Tavern cutlery. Each piece evokes the rustic charm of a Greek inn table, where meals are simple but extraordinary. The handles are made with a timeless design reminiscent of weathered wood and sun-warmed stone, while the knives shine like the waters of the Mediterranean. Perfect for enjoying freshly caught fish, crusty bread dipped in olive oil or a salad sprinkled with feta straight from the farms in the hills.

With tavern cutlery, every meal becomes a small escape to that dreamy village, where the food is unforgettable, the wine endless and the host's smile echoes in your heart.

The 24-piece set is for 6 people and consists of 6 dinner knives, 6 dinner forks, 6 dinner spoons and 6 dessert spoons. Each cutlery part is composed of a stainless steel blade, a plastic handle and an aluminum ornament in the center. The materials are of very good quality. The blade is 2.0 mm thick, does not bend and is made of 18/10 stainless steel. The handle is made of acrylic, a strong plastic with a slightly shiny effect. The color will not wear off because it is applied throughout the handle (and not as a thin coating on the surface).

The knives have a fine serration. This keeps them sharp and cuts well. The set comes in a cutlery cassette made of European softwood: nice to give as a gift and handy for in the cutlery drawer.

The cutlery is suitable for the dishwasher and we recommend that you wash it at a maximum temperature of 55˚ C.

Technical information handle:

PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) is a transparent thermoplastic plastic better known under the name acrylate. This strong plastic can easily be molded into all kinds of shapes when heated. The material is transparent and therefore very suitable for imitating the mother-of-pearl effect characteristic of this cutlery.

Technical information blade:

AISI 430 is a stainless steel type to which chrome has been added. This type of steel is often used for cutlery because it is easy to shape (spoons and forks), has a strong gloss layer and does not rust quickly.

AISI 420 is a stronger stainless steel type to which carbon has been added in addition to chrome. This steel is less easy to bend and is very suitable for making knives. With a heat treatment, this steel is extra hardened (HRC52 / 56) so that the cutting surface is damaged less quickly and remains sharp for longer. It is also highly resistant to corrosion.

HRC52 / 56 is the standard by which the hardness of the steel is indicated. This type of steel will not break easily and is less susceptible to rusting.

18/10 stainless steel is a type of steel to which 18% chrome and 10% nickel has been added. Chrome gives the steel a durable glossy finish and nickel protects against rust. There are also cutlery types of steel (18/8 and 18/0) to which less or almost no nickel has been added. These are slightly less resistant to rust.
