Review of Ginkgo Varberg 20-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 4

The first thing that impressed me about the Varberg stemware is the weight - it's solid and heavy in the hand. You'll also notice that the bowls on the spoons are a squared-off oval shape and the fork tines are longer and sleeker than usual. As a result, these pieces have a nice mouth-feel. These two unique design elements (combined with the high-polish finish) make this stemware look elegant, very classy and very expensive. They are appropriate for everyday use as well as when you want to set an elegant table.
Care: these are dishwasher safe but, as with all stainless, do not use a citrus dishwasher detergent or combine with silver or aluminum items. Also, you may see some scratches depending on your normal use (we tend to cut our meat by using a knife against the back of fork and have begun to see small scratches there from the knife blade). The Ginkgo website has a lot of useful tips on caring for stainless stemware.
Overall, I could not be happier with this product. The pattern is not that easy to find - other than Ginkgo's website, only a few retailers carry it - so if you see it, grab it!

Product Description
With a sophisticated mirror finish and a handle that curves out at the end, the Varberg collection from Ginkgo is sure to please. The 20-piece place setting includes four each of the following: salad fork, dinner fork, dinner knife, dinner spoon and teaspoon. All pieces are made from 18/0 stainless steel. Dishwasher safe. Made for you life.
