Ask a Question About This Product
The Karaca Lizbon is a 30-piece stainless steel cutlery set configured for service to six diners. It comprises 6 each of dinner fork, dinner knife, dessert spoon, teaspoon, and cake fork. Used in hospitality table service, banqueting operations, and smaller dining establishments requiring durable flatware.
Commercial Application
Cutlery sets at this configuration serve front-of-house operations where table turnover requires consistent presentation and minimal replacement frequency. The 18/10 stainless steel specification resists corrosion under repeated commercial washing cycles. Hotels, B&Bs, and small restaurant operations use such sets where capital outlay must balance durability with presentable finish.
During service, matched flatware reduces inventory complexity and maintains uniform table appearance across multiple covers. A six-person set allows one complete service rotation while additional sets cycle through dishwashing. The polished finish tolerates mechanical warewashing at temperatures up to 85°C without pitting or discolouration.

Construction & Build Quality
Construction uses 18/10 chromium-nickel stainless steel throughout. Knife blades receive additional hardening treatment to maintain edge retention through repeated contact with ceramic dinnerware. Fork tines and spoon bowls are formed from single-piece pressings to eliminate weld points that accumulate residue. The polished finish is applied via rotary buffing, which closes surface micro-pores and reduces bacterial adhesion in compliance with food-contact hygiene standards.
- Single-piece fork and spoon construction eliminates bacterial trap points at welds
- Hardened knife blade specification maintains cutting function across 500+ service cycles
- Rotary-buffed finish reduces surface porosity for improved hygiene compliance
- 18/10 alloy composition meets EN 10088-2 corrosion resistance grade 1.4310
