Christofle Aria is a most sculptural design resembling a Doric Greek column with the finial underscored by a band to represent the echinus and draped fabrics of Roman togas. The fluting of this pattern makes it natural resistant to surface scratches and its architectural origins make it most appropriate for Mediterranean inspired style homes. The result is a timelessly elegant model that complements any dinner service.
Advice about the care of Christofle flatware (silverplated and sterling silver)
Christofle Aria 24 pcs Sterling Silver cutlery set is dishwasher safe.
Kindly note that certain detergents can wear at your flatware. If you do not wash your silverware right after use, we suggest you rinse them off with lukewarm water.
The dishwasher is an effective way to maintain your Christofle silverware in clean and perfect condition, as long as you note the following:
1. Before the first use, wash your silverware by hand with neutral dishwashing liquid without synthetic fragrance. Dish soaps containing citrus or lemon are to be avoided.
2. Use only washing powders formulated without chlorine or citric acid (proscribe gels and liquids which often contain chlorine as well as โlemon perfumesโ containing citric acid). Avoid multifunction tablets.
3. When filling your dishwasher with regenerating salt, avoid putting silverware in on the first use.
4. Follow the dishwasherโs instructions for water hardness: lime water that is too hard can be corrosive.
5. Eggs, lemon, mustard, fish, some fruits and legumes can also cause silverware to turn yellow. Prewashing by hand may be useful.
6. Ideally, we advise that you partially open the dishwasher door at the end of the cycle, so that the dishes do not remain in an atmosphere saturated with vapor. Wipe the cutlery if they are still damp.
7. Avoid the presence of crystal glasses which may also tarnish the silver.
8. Important: Separate silver cutlery from stainless steel: silver does not coexist well with other metals. Run two separate cycles or place them in a distant cutlery basket far from each other.
