Ginkgo has been designing quality since 1977. A perfect example of this is our Ginkgo Le Prix 20-Piece Stainless Steel Flatware Set, Milano Red, Service for four. The Le Prix pattern was first created for Ginkgo in the late 70’s in a small village in Southern France. This original design by Ginkgo has been copied and emulated by many manufacturers all over the world. However, Ginkgo remains the original manufacturer of this flatware. Be rest assured that you are buying the original. This 20-piece place setting includes four each of the following; salad fork, dinner fork, dinner knife, dinner spoon and teaspoon. Made in Korea of 18/0 Stainless Steel. Dishwasher Safe. Ginkgo. Made for your life.Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and this flatware has been flattered time and again over the past 30 years. This is the original, Le Prix, created for Ginkgo in the late 1970s in a small village in southern France. Now larger and sturdier, the flatware is constructed of 18/8 stainless steel with riveted, high-end plastic handles in a choice of half a dozen colors. Casual, fun, and worry-free, Le Prix sets are perfect for tucking in the picnic basket or camping kit, and pulling out for large gatherings such as family reunions when you want something in-between disposable plastic cutlery and the best silver.
The four place settings in this 20-piece starter each consist of an 8-1/2-inch dinner knife, 7-3/4-inch dinner fork, 6-3/4-inch salad fork, 7-3/4-inch soup spoon, and 6-1/2-inch teaspoon. A handy, all-purpose design, the knife blades are not only rounded, to easily spread butter or mayonnaise, but slightly serrated, so you can cut barbecued chicken right off the grill. The handles are break-resistant, and even the white plastic is stain-resistant. Best of all, the flatware is dishwasher-safe. –Ann Bieri

Absolutely love these utensils Absolutely love these utensils. I purchased a set like this 22 years ago, and have tried using other utensils, but didn’t like the way the others felt as much. After 22 years of going through the dishwasher, my set was looking quite rough. I tried a couple of similar sets like these from other companies, but the handles were either too thin or too short, the fork tongs were either too squared or too narrow to hold food. I finally found Ginkgo’s set on Amazon, and wound up sending the others…
mixed reviews saying they were easily bendable and falling apart Who would have thought it would be so hard to find black handle silver riveted silverware? That being said I was looking at a set for 3 times the price with.mixed reviews saying they were easily bendable and falling apart. So then I looked at a knock off of that set and nothing satisfied me to spend money and not be sure or to know I am purposefully buying a fake.So I settled on these, not exactly what I want but everyone seems to like them. Let me just say these far exceeded all…
Love Them! There’s only two things I don’t like about this silverware. First, it’s made in China. Nothing against international trade, but wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could buy from the countries we want to? Like the USA? The other thing is, they are short. When I say short, I mean the handles are a good inch shorter than any silverware I’ve ever used. When I remarked about this to hubby, his reply was “who cares? they look good and feel good in my hand”. And that is exactly what I was going…
