How Napoli 18/10 Premium Stainless Steel Cutlery Works
What makes premium 18/10 stainless steel cutlery like the Napoli collection stand head and shoulders above standard options? It comes down to composition—18% chromium creates that protective layer preventing rust and corrosion, while 10% nickel delivers the luxurious silver-like finish and enhanced durability. Each piece undergoes meticulous polishing for that mirror-like shine that catches the light beautifully. The balanced design features ergonomic handles and proper weight distribution, meaning knives actually cut effectively, forks pierce smoothly, and spoons carry liquid without awkward drips—small details that enhance the entire dining experience.

Top Tips for Using Napoli 18/10 Premium Stainless Steel Cutlery
To maximise the lifespan of your Napoli cutlery, rinse promptly after service to remove acidic food residues that can eventually affect the finish. Use cutlery baskets during washing to prevent scratching, and avoid leaving in stainless steel sinks for extended periods where chemical reactions might occur.

For storage, consider dedicated cutlery trays rather than jumbling pieces together, preventing unnecessary contact scratches.
