Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Copper Kettle in Bakewell, Derbyshire was looking to replace its ageing and mismatched cutlery. They needed a unified, classic style that could handle hundreds of covers a week without losing its shine or integrity.
"Making a big investment in new cutlery feels like a risk, but the Olympia S382 cutlery sample took the pressure off. We could feel the quality of the Jesmond pattern cutlery set straight away. It felt sturdy, looked fantastic against our placemats, and we knew it was the right choice for our tearoom's classic feel."
Samuel Jones – Proprietor

First Use and Long-Term Care
Getting Started
- Before first use, wash the cutlery thoroughly in hot, soapy water.
- Always use a non-abrasive cloth or sponge to avoid scratching the surface.
- Dry each piece immediately with a soft, clean cloth to prevent water spots and maintain shine.
Keeping It Gleaming
- Avoid leaving cutlery to soak for extended periods in water, especially with acidic or salty food residue.
- If using a commercial dishwasher, remove and dry the items as soon as the cycle is complete.
- The magnetic property is perfect for cutlery retriever lids on bins, significantly reducing replacement costs.
- A quick polish with a microfibre cloth every so often will keep the high-polish finish looking brand new.

The Olympia Advantage: Everyday Elegance, Built to Last
Choosing Olympia cutlery is about more than just finding forks and spoons; it's about investing in your business's reputation for quality. For years, Olympia has been a trusted name in the UK catering industry, known for producing reliable, no-nonsense essentials that simply work. The Jesmond range embodies this philosophy perfectly. While the pattern provides a timeless, understated elegance that elevates the dining experience, the real long-term value lies in its construction. The robust 18/0 stainless steel is engineered to endure the daily cycle of use, washing, and polishing without losing its shape or shine. This translates to fewer replacements, a consistently professional look across every single table, and the quiet confidence that comes from knowing your tableware won't let you down during a busy service. It’s the smart, dependable choice for operators who value both presentation and performance.
Explore more from OlympiaWhat Does '18/0 Stainless Steel' Actually Mean for Your Business?
Ever seen '18/0' on cutlery specs and just nodded along? Let's break it down. The numbers refer to the percentages of chromium and nickel in the steel. So, '18/0' means it contains 18% chromium and 0% nickel. The chromium is the hero here, providing fantastic hardness, durability, and resistance to corrosion and rust. The absence of nickel is what makes the cutlery magnetic – a massive plus if you use a cutlery saving system on your bins, as it prevents staff from accidentally throwing it away.
Think of it as the reliable family estate car of the cutlery world. It's not a flashy, high-maintenance sports car (that would be 18/10 steel). Instead, it's built for mileage, reliability, and practicality. It's tough, cost-effective, and does its job beautifully day in, day out, making it the perfect choice for any busy commercial environment where performance and value are key.
Who Should Buy This?
