Fortessa Bistro Flatware

The 18/10 designation refers to the composition of the steel—18% chromium and 10% nickel. This specific blend is the industry standard for high-quality flatware because it offers superior rust resistance and maintains a brilliant, long-lasting shine compared to lower-grade stainless steel.

Yes, the Fortessa Bistro collection is completely dishwasher safe. For the best results and to maintain the mirrored finish over time, we recommend avoiding harsh detergents and ensuring the pieces are not crowded in the basket.

This is a 20-piece set designed to serve four people. It includes a table fork, salad/dessert fork, oval soup/dessert spoon, tea spoon, and table knife for each setting.

These pieces are designed with a balanced weight that feels substantial in the hand without being overly heavy. The ergonomic, rounded handles are crafted to provide a comfortable, natural grip during everyday use.

While the high-polish mirrored finish is durable, stainless steel can develop fine surface scratches over time with regular use and cleaning. This is normal for polished flatware and generally adds to the character of the set without compromising its performance.
