Frequently Asked Questions▼
Is this flatware dishwasher safe?
Hand wash is recommended. The matte black finish is a coating, and dishwasher heat and detergent can dull it over time.
How many people does this set serve?
The 20-piece set is a full service for 4, with a dinner fork, salad fork, dinner knife, dinner spoon, and teaspoon per setting.
Is this solid black metal or a coated finish?
It is stainless steel flatware finished in matte black, not solid black metal.
Does the set include serving pieces?
No. This set covers place settings for 4; it does not include serving utensils.
Care & Use▼
Care Steps
Hand wash in warm water with a mild dish soap immediately after use. Dry each piece with a soft cloth rather than air-drying to prevent water spotting on the matte finish. Avoid abrasive scrubbers and bleach-based cleaners, which can strip the black coating. Store in a flatware tray or drawer organizer to prevent pieces from scratching each other.

Why Earlston Works at the Table
One Set, Every Course
Digging through mismatched drawers for the right fork wastes time before dinner. This 20-piece set keeps a coordinated dinner fork, salad fork, knife, spoon, and teaspoon on hand for four full place settings.
Built to Handle Real Meals
Flimsy flatware bends under a steak knife or thick roast. Earlston's stainless steel base gives each piece real weight and a balanced, comfortable grip through every course.

Earlston vs. The Generic Alternative
Finish
Against the generic alternative: a matte black coating adds contemporary contrast, instead of the same reflective silver every flatware drawer already has.
Set Completeness
Against the generic alternative: a full 20-piece service for 4 covers every course, instead of piecing together mismatched forks and spoons.
Feel in Hand
Against the generic alternative: balanced stainless steel handles feel substantial through a meal, instead of thin, lightweight utensils that flex under pressure.
Is this flatware dishwasher safe?
Hand wash is recommended. The matte black finish is a coating, and dishwasher heat and detergent can dull it over time.
How many people does this set serve?
The 20-piece set is a full service for 4, with a dinner fork, salad fork, dinner knife, dinner spoon, and teaspoon per setting.
Is this solid black metal or a coated finish?
