Elia Clara

The Elia Clara table spoon is a straightforward, well-made piece of flatware from Elia's Clara range. It follows a clean, classic profile that sits comfortably across formal dining, brasserie, and hotel restaurant settings without looking out of place in any of them. There is nothing fussy about the design, which is part of what makes it a practical choice for operators who want reliable, consistent-looking covers.

Constructed from 18/10 stainless steel with a 2.5mm gauge and finished to a mirror polish, the Clara has a reassuring weight and brightness in the hand. The heavier gauge holds up well under repeated commercial dishwasher cycles and daily handling without showing the bending or dulling that thinner cutlery tends to develop over time in busy service environments.

A few practical points worth noting:

• 18/10 stainless steel composition gives good corrosion resistance in dishwasher use
• Mirror polish finish presents cleanly on the table but will show water marks if not dried promptly after washing
• 2.5mm gauge offers solid feel without being unwieldy for guests
• Supplied in packs of 12, making it straightforward to scale quantities to cover requirements

The Clara range is well suited to mid-range and upscale restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and function venues where a polished, classic aesthetic is expected. It is not a budget entry-level piece, but it is also not positioned as a luxury prestige range — it sits firmly in the reliable everyday-service category. Operators running very high-volume canteen or casual dining operations may find a simpler, more economical range fits their throughput better.

If you are building out covers for a new opening or refreshing existing flatware stock and want to talk through quantities or pattern matching across the Clara range, the team is happy to help.

The Elia Clara table knife is a straightforward, classically proportioned piece of cutlery suited to a wide range of hospitality settings. Its clean, unadorned profile means it sits comfortably on a formally laid table or a more relaxed cover without looking out of place in either context.

Produced in 18/10 stainless steel and finished to a mirror polish, the Clara holds its appearance well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles, which matters in high-turnover service environments where cutlery is being washed and turned around multiple times per shift. The 2.5mm gauge gives the knife a solid, balanced feel in the hand — noticeable to guests accustomed to lighter-gauge pieces, and a practical consideration when projecting a certain standard of table presentation.

• Dishwasher safe for efficient turnaround between covers
• Mirror polish presents well on the table and resists early dulling
• Solid handle construction with no hollow sections to trap moisture or soil
• 18/10 stainless steel grade offers reliable corrosion resistance in commercial use
• Consistent weight and balance across the set for uniform table presentation

Supplied in packs of 12, the Clara is a practical choice for operations building or refreshing a cutlery stock. It suits restaurants, hotel dining rooms, contract catering operations, and similar venues where a dependable, neutral-pattern knife is needed in quantity. For venues wanting a more distinctive profile or a heavier-gauge finish, there are alternative patterns within the range worth considering.

If you are working out quantities for a new opening or want to discuss pattern options across a full cutlery range, the team is happy to help you think it through.

The Elia Clara table fork is a straightforward, classically proportioned piece of table cutlery designed for everyday use in professional hospitality settings. The clean, unadorned profile sits comfortably across formal dining, casual restaurant covers, and hotel table service without looking out of place in any of them.

Made from 18/10 stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish, Clara presents well under dining room lighting and holds its appearance through repeated dishwasher cycles. The 2.5mm gauge gives the fork a solid, reassuring weight in the hand — the kind of feel that reads as quality to a guest without drawing attention to itself.

For operators, the practical advantages are straightforward:

• Dishwasher safe, reducing turnaround time between covers
• Mirror finish maintains brightness with standard warewashing
• Consistent 2.5mm gauge across the range supports a uniform table presentation
• 18/10 stainless steel resists corrosion and staining in daily service

Clara is supplied in packs of 12, which suits incremental stock building or topping up existing covers. For new openings or larger operations setting up a full house count, it is worth considering how many packs are needed to cover peak service plus a contingency float for breakage and loss.

This pattern is a practical choice for mid-market restaurants, hotels, contract caterers, and function venues where a clean, timeless look is needed across a wide range of covers. If you need a heavier-gauge option for more formal fine-dining settings, there are alternative patterns in the Elia range worth considering.

If you are specifying cutlery across a full opening or want help working out cover counts, we are happy to talk it through.

The Elia Clara teaspoon is a polished mirror-finish piece from Elia's Clara flatware range. Constructed from 18/10 stainless steel with a 2.5mm gauge, it has a solid, balanced feel in the hand and a clean, unfussy profile that sits comfortably across a wide range of table settings — from casual café service through to more formal restaurant and hotel covers.

In a busy service environment, cutlery takes a great deal of handling, repeated machine washing, and the occasional knock. The heavier gauge of the Clara teaspoon helps it hold its shape and finish over extended use, and the 18/10 steel composition gives reasonable resistance to the staining and pitting that can affect lower-grade flatware over time. It is fully dishwasher safe, which matters when you are turning covers quickly and need reliable throughput through a commercial glasswasher or dishwasher.

Practically speaking, the Clara range suits operators who want a presentable, durable teaspoon without the premium cost of fully forged flatware. Key operational points worth noting:

• Mirror finish presents well on the table and shows polish marks clearly — polishing cloths are advisable for formal service
• 18/10 steel offers good corrosion resistance in commercial dishwasher conditions
• 2.5mm gauge gives reassuring weight without being unnecessarily heavy
• Sold in packs of 12, making it straightforward to manage par stock
• Compatible with standard commercial dishwasher cycles

The Clara teaspoon is well suited to cafés, restaurants, hotels, and contract catering operations. If you are equipping a large site or need to match across a broader flatware range, it is worth considering the full Clara collection for consistency across covers.

If you are unsure how many packs suit your cover count, or whether Clara is the right range for your service style, we are happy to help you work that out before you order.

The Elia Clara soup spoon is a polished, mirror-finish piece from Elia's Clara range, crafted in 18/10 stainless steel with a 2.5mm gauge. It has a clean, classic profile with no decorative detailing — the kind of straightforward, well-proportioned design that sits comfortably across a broad range of table settings, from relaxed bistro dining to more formal restaurant covers.

In a busy service environment, cutlery takes a great deal of handling, stacking, and repeated machine washing. The heavier gauge of the Clara spoon gives it a reassuring solidity in the hand and helps it hold its shape over time, resisting the flexing and lightweight feel that can make cheaper pieces feel unsuitable for professional use. The mirror polish maintains a bright, clean appearance under dining room lighting and responds well to commercial dishwasher cycles when standard dosing and rinse-aid levels are maintained.

A few practical points worth noting for operators:

• Fully dishwasher safe — suitable for commercial warewashing at standard temperatures
• 18/10 stainless steel offers good corrosion resistance in high-use environments
• Mirror polish gives a formal presentation without a premium price point
• Supplied in packs of 12, making it straightforward to top up covers as needed
• Classic profile suits mixed table settings and pairs well within the wider Clara range

The Clara range is a practical choice for mid-market restaurants, hotels, contract caterers, and hospitality venues looking for reliable, presentable cutlery that won't need replacing frequently. If you're setting up a full cover or need guidance on quantities relative to your service volume, we're happy to help you work through the numbers before you order.

The Elia Clara dessert spoon is a straightforward, well-made piece of table cutlery suited to professional food service. The design follows a clean, classic profile with no decorative embellishment, which makes it a practical choice across a wide range of covers — from casual dining through to more formal restaurant settings.

Clara is produced in 18/10 stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish. The 18/10 grade offers reliable corrosion resistance and holds its appearance well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles, which is what matters most in a busy operation. The 2.5mm gauge gives the spoon a solid feel in the hand — noticeably weightier than budget-grade cutlery — which tends to read well to guests and holds up better over time under heavy use.

From an operational standpoint, the practical advantages are straightforward:

• Dishwasher safe and resistant to dulling or spotting with correct warewash chemistry
• Consistent mirror finish presents well across a full table setting
• Supplied in a pack of 12, making stock management and top-up ordering simple
• Neutral, timeless profile complements most tableware styles without clashing
• 18/10 grade resists the staining and pitting that affects lower-grade steel over time

Clara is a sensible choice for restaurants, hotels, contract caterers, and event venues looking for reliable everyday cutlery that presents professionally without requiring careful handling. For high-volume sites with significant daily cover counts, it is worth considering whether a larger pack quantity or a broader Clara range across spoon sizes would better suit your stock requirements.

If you are building out a full cutlery specification or matching across multiple piece types, the team is happy to talk through what works best for your covers and service style.

The Elia Clara dessert knife is a solid, mirror-polished piece of table cutlery designed for professional hospitality use. It follows a clean, unfussy profile that works across a wide range of cover styles — from relaxed all-day dining to more formal restaurant settings — without drawing attention to itself in either direction.

Made from 18/10 stainless steel with a 2.5mm gauge, the Clara has a reassuring weight and balance in the hand. In service, that consistency matters: cutlery that feels substantial tends to sit better at the cover and handles the routine pressures of a busy pass without warping, dulling, or losing its finish over repeated dishwasher cycles. The mirror polish holds well with standard commercial warewashing, though hard water and aggressive detergents will eventually dull any polished finish over time — rinsing promptly and using a suitable rinse aid helps.

• Consistent weight and balance across a matched range
• Mirror polish presents cleanly on both formal and informal covers
• 18/10 steel grade resists staining and corrosion in daily use
• Dishwasher safe for straightforward turnaround between services
• Supplied in a pack of 12, suited to supplementing or extending existing stock

The Clara range suits operators looking for a reliable, mid-weight cutlery pattern that will hold its appearance through regular service without requiring specialist handling. It is well suited to hotels, restaurants, and contract catering operations where consistency of presentation matters but the cutlery itself does not need to be a talking point.

If you are fitting out a full cover count or mixing Clara into an existing pattern, it is worth having a conversation with us first to make sure quantities and complementary pieces are right for your service.

The Elia Clara dessert fork is a straightforward, well-made piece of flatware designed for everyday use in professional settings. The Clara pattern follows a clean, unfussy profile that sits comfortably across formal dining, brasserie, and casual restaurant covers without drawing attention away from the food.

Made from 18/10 stainless steel with a 2.5mm gauge and a mirror polish finish, these forks have a solid, balanced feel in the hand — the kind of weight that reads as quality to a guest without being unnecessarily heavy. The mirror finish presents well under dining room lighting and holds up reliably through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles, which is where lighter, cheaper flatware tends to show its age first.

For front-of-house teams, the practical advantages are straightforward:

• Mirror polish maintains a bright, consistent appearance across a full table setting
• 18/10 stainless steel offers good resistance to tarnishing and corrosion in daily service
• Dishwasher safe and easy to sort and polish during turnaround
• Consistent gauge and weight supports a uniform table presentation
• Supplied in a dozen, making it easy to build par stock in manageable quantities

The Clara range is suited to mid-range and upward restaurant operations where presentation matters but operational practicality is equally important. For venues running very high covers or where flatware losses are a frequent concern, it is worth considering whether a heavier-gauge pattern or a larger pack format would better suit your stock management.
