Material and Workmanship

The niello pattern of the Sunflower Black collection shows a dense leaf ornament that extends over the entire length of the handle. The black niello enamel is hand-applied into the pre-engraved lines, fired, and polished — the contrast between shining silver and matte black niello gives the pattern its depth. Because each engraving is created by hand, the 24 pieces show small individual differences in the lines, which are typical for hand-engraved silversmithing art.

Use and Occasions

With 24 pieces for six people, the Sunflower Black set is suitable for elegant dinner parties, holiday meals, and festive occasions, as well as an exceptional wedding gift or an addition to one's own sterling silver collection. The pure silver look without gilding can be easily combined with existing tableware.

Engraving and SilberVerse Card

Personal engraving is possible upon request — contact us for individual advice on which area is best suited. Upon request, we will also include a free SilberVerse card in landscape format 15 × 10 cm, individually designed for you.

Care

Clean the set exclusively by hand with warm water and mild dish soap and dry it immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth to prevent water spots and tarnishing. Dishwashers are not suitable, as high temperatures and aggressive chemicals can damage the niello decoration. Store the cutlery in the provided gift case, protected from humidity and dust. If the silver tarnishes over time, a special silver polishing cloth will restore its original shine.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is niello and why does each piece show small differences?
Niello is a black alloy that is fired into hand-engraved lines in silver. Because each line is drawn by hand, the 24 pieces differ in fine details of the engraving — a characteristic of genuine hand-engraving, not a defect.

Can the set be engraved?
Yes, personal engraving is possible upon request. Contact us for individual advice on the appropriate area.

Is the set suitable for daily use?
Yes, thanks to the robust 925 silver quality, the set is suitable for everyday use. Pay attention to handwashing care to maintain shine and niello contrast.
