About our Silverware
Silver and Silverware – A Brief History
Humans have been using silver since ancient times. Silver is one of the seven “metals of antiquity”, which includes gold, copper, tin, lead, iron, mercury, and silver.
Silver has antibacterial properties, which makes it a popular choice for crafting utensils used for eating and drinking. Later on, it became a preferred material to create fine tableware, such as elegant teapots, trays, and silverware. As the desire for sophisticated dining experiences grew, meals became ceremonial events with multiple courses, all served on exquisite silverware. The possession of silverware became a status symbol, used to impress dinner guests. A unique silverware set on the table, complete with candelabras and centerpieces, was a clear sign of a high social standing.
As time passed, silverware became more common but still reserved for special occasions. On those special occasions, parents would bring out a velvet-lined box that housed their very best silverware sets.
Created for longevity to pass down from generation to generation, the best silverware brands offered silverware as an investment, which offered long-term beauty and lasting value.
At INOX Artisans, we aim to bring back this appreciation for lifetime value and the connection to the products we use every day, by shining a light on the artisan-makers and making more affordable products, for all to enjoy. Those who buy silverware online from us, help support our skilled artisans while acquiring beautiful heirloom-quality silverware for their home.
Today, the term silverware most often refers to flatware, serving pieces, and other tabletop items made from stainless steel. Many of the best silverware sets are crafted from stainless steel and sets include forks, knives, table spoons, and teaspoons.
The best silverware brands make flatware that is affordable, durable, and easy to care for. When you buy from INOX Artisans you get all that PLUS a unique silverware set crafted by hand, using age-old metalwork techniques.
