These long balmy summer evenings are definitely my favourite. Seasonal dining, with the doors open wide, I cant think of many things that are better.
Setting a table for guests is something I really enjoy, always keeping it simple, mainly as I think a simple table is the most effective. Fresh crisp linen, always white for me. Candles; not just for how pretty they look, but I like to pick a scent that works with the season. For this table it was lime and ginger. Fresh flowers; usually garden offerings, I think these create a more natural, rustic, homegrown look. For this table it was lavender, the smell was amazing. Super clean glass wear (it has to be sparkling) Always white plates/serving bowls, simple and stylish. Finally cutlery; good quality cutlery is SO essential.
Robert Welch very kindly gifted to me the Trattoria Bright Cutlery Set to review whilst dining with friends and family last weekend.
‘Every Robert Welch product is designed in the Old Silk Mill at Chipping Campden by the Robert Welch design team. The Mill, nestled in the English Cotswold Hills, is where founder, Robert Welch, began designing in one small room, back in 1955’
I love a product with a proper, wholesome story behind it and was especially won over by this design being British and ‘kitchen table’ homegrown.
The Trattoria cutlery has a traditional appearance inspired by European bistro dining. Designed with the highest quality of 18/20 mirror polish stainless steel (the shine is amazing!) and POM plastic handles with stainless steel rivets. This cutlery set is classy and elegant, great for indoor and outdoor dining whether it be elegant or more casual. The weight is great, heavy enough to feel VERY premium, but light enough to feel comfortable to hold and use.
Its comes with a 25 year guarantee and is dishwasher safe (win, win!)
Scrolling through the website, Robert Welch offer a cutlery sample service, which is such a great idea. Buy a sample set here
So, would I spend my hard earn’t cash on this cutlery, absolutely YES! Fantastic product, a gorgeous range to choose from and whats more, all designed in good old Blightly!
