Forged flatware features superb pattern definition, heavy gauge pieces with a sturdy feel, and in the case of this pattern, generous sizing. Garnet is a contemporary design that features both polished and frosted finishes, as well as an interesting sculpted treatment at the tip of each piece.

Customer Review

My husband and I just got married and we were looking for a nice, hefty 18/10 flatware set that would be suitable for both everyday use as well as when we would be entertaining. Upon doing an extensive search on the internet, I came upon Oneida's Satin Garnet collection. After reading all the product description and reviews, I was convinced we had found what we were looking for. So I placed the order in December 2004. They arrived about a week later and sure enough, we were absolutely delighted with our purchase. The pieces look wonderful and feel great in the hand...each feels very solid, quite substantial. After almost 3 months of usage, I still find myself admiring them! They do well in the dishwasher too, always coming out with a nice mirror shine. And the price here at Amazon.com can't be beat. I saw this same collection last weekend on sale at a department store for $150! All I can say is thanks Amazon for carrying such a great product at a terrific bargain!

Just to note: I couldn't tell by the picture on the web site, but the handles of each of the utensils is "frosted". (I would prefer unfrosted -- but the strengh of this stuff far outways that!) Also, there is a little round, ball design at the very end of each utensil. (Hard to explain!) For the knife, this design is on both sides of the handle (as is the "frosting"), but for the forks and spoons, the design is only on the one side, so the other side has sort of an indentation instead of the ball design. I was surprised to see it -- but am not bothered by it. Just wanted to mention it! Additionally, the back side of the forks and spoons are not frosted -- only the knives are frosted on both sides -- and I think that is customary with flatware. I am VERY PLEASED with this stuff and for the price, I cannot wait to use it! One thing is for sure: no one is going to bend any of this stuff-- I bet it is nearly impossible. Very substantial flatware.
