Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Copper Kettle Tea Room in Harrogate was looking to refresh their entire tabletop presentation to better match their newly refurbished, contemporary interior. They needed cutlery that was stylish but could also handle the relentless pace of a popular tourist spot.
"We're absolutely thrilled with the Olympia Tivoli set. They look so much more expensive than they are, and our customers frequently comment on the lovely hammered finish. They’ve been through the dishwasher hundreds of times already and still look brand new. A brilliant upgrade."
Robert Miller – Proprietor
The new cutlery immediately enhanced the perceived value of their service, with several online reviews specifically mentioning the 'lovely, quality tableware'.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon arrival, unbox and give all 48 pieces a quick count to ensure your set is complete.
- Run the entire set through a hot wash cycle in your dishwasher before first use to remove any manufacturing residues.
- Stack them neatly in cutlery trays or polishers, ready for their first service.
- Brief your staff on the new set, highlighting the quality to ensure they're handled with care.
Keeping It Going
- Always use a rinse aid in your commercial dishwasher to prevent water spots and keep them gleaming.
- For a five-star finish, give each piece a quick polish with a dry, clean microfibre cloth after washing.
- While durable, avoid leaving them to soak for extended periods in harsh chemicals or heavily salted water.
- The hammered finish is great for hiding minor scratches, but store them properly to avoid unnecessary damage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the Olympia Tivoli cutlery SA657 set magnetic?
A: No. High-quality 18/10 stainless steel has a very low magnetic pull due to its high nickel content, which is a good sign of its quality and rust-resistance.
Q: Are the knives in this set serrated?
A: The table knives feature a smooth, sharp blade, not a serrated one. They are designed as all-purpose dining knives suitable for most dishes served in a restaurant or pub.
Q: Can I buy replacement pieces if some get lost?
A: Yes, one of the benefits of choosing a popular range like Olympia Tivoli is that individual forks, knives, dessert spoons, and teaspoons are typically available to buy separately.
Q: How does the hammered finish hold up to cleaning?
A: Brilliantly. The indentations are shallow and smooth, so food does not get trapped. The set is fully commercial dishwasher safe and cleans just as easily as standard polished cutlery.
Q: How would you describe the weight of the pieces?
A: They have a pleasant, medium weight. They feel solid and substantial in the hand without being overly heavy or cumbersome, striking a great balance for daily use.
Q: Is this 48 piece stainless steel cutlery set suitable for a fine dining environment?
A: While the elegant design fits in many settings, it's most at home in busy bistros, pubs, and hotels. Some exclusive fine dining establishments may prefer a heavier, forged cutlery range.
Q: Will this cutlery tarnish or rust easily?
A: No. The 18/10 stainless steel composition provides excellent protection against both rust and tarnishing, even with the demands of daily commercial dishwashing.
Q: Does the hammered design feel rough to hold?
A: Not at all. The finish is smooth to the touch, providing a pleasant tactile texture that also improves grip slightly compared to a perfectly smooth handle.

Explore more from OlympiaMore Than Just Shine: What '18/10 Stainless Steel' Really Means
Ever see '18/10' on cutlery and wonder what it's all about? It's not just a fancy number; it's the recipe for quality. Think of it like baking a top-notch cake. The '18' stands for 18% chromium – this is the key ingredient that makes the steel incredibly resistant to rust and corrosion, like the flour that gives the cake its strong structure. The '10' stands for 10% nickel. This is the magic ingredient for a brilliant, silver-like shine and added toughness against the acids in foods like lemon juice or vinegar. It’s the sugar and vanilla, giving it that beautiful finish and rich flavour. This combination means your cutlery won't just look great on day one, but will stay looking great through countless washes, retaining its lustre and integrity for years.
