Sustainable tableware for every day: sturdy pieces in enamel and ceramic, plus long-lasting cutlery from Güde. The pieces in this collection are robust enough for everyday use and good-looking enough for guests — tableware you buy once and keep for years.
How to recognise good tableware
- Material: Enamel is robust, free from harmful substances and practically indestructible; ceramic brings warmth and character to the table.
- Cutlery craftsmanship: Handles in barrel oak or walnut turn table knives, forks and spoons into pieces you’ll never want to part with.
- Timeless design: Simple shapes outlast every interior trend, keeping your tableware looking current instead of ending up in the discard pile.
- Collections instead of one-off purchases: Cutlery collections such as Alpha and Kappa can be built up piece by piece.
Our brands: why these in particular
Güde makes table cutlery from the Alpha and Kappa collections — table knives, table forks and table spoons, some with handles in barrel oak or walnut. The same care that goes into its kitchen knives, but made for a laid table. Fair Together complements the table with responsibly made tableware.
Practical tips: how to keep your tableware looking good for longer
Enamel handles heat without a problem, but it doesn’t like thermal shock — let hot tableware cool briefly before running cold water over it. It’s best to wash cutlery with wooden handles by hand, so the wood stays smooth and crack-free. Ceramic is usually dishwasher-safe, but it also benefits from gentle handling.
What makes enamel tableware special?
Enamel combines a steel core with a glass-like surface: robust, flavour-neutral and easy to clean. That’s why enamel has been used for generations — from the breakfast table to the campsite.
How do I care for cutlery with wooden handles?
Wash by hand, dry, done. Occasionally, you can refresh the wood with a little food-safe oil — this keeps the handle looking good and well-sealed.
What goes well with this tableware?
Long-lasting cookware for preparation, a sharp kitchen knife for serving, and trivets to protect your table and kettle. You’ll find more useful helpers in kitchen accessories.
