Product Description
The Sola Durban Vintage dessert spoon is part of Churchill's Durban range, a line of stainless steel cutlery finished with a stonewashed process to give each piece a softened, aged appearance. The result is a matte, textured look that sits well with relaxed, informal table settings rather than the high-polish finish associated with more formal dining.
Made from 18/0 stainless steel, the Durban spoon is a practical everyday workhorse. The stonewashed finish helps mask minor surface marks and scratches that accumulate with repeated commercial use and machine washing, which is a genuine operational advantage in busy covers environments where cutlery takes considerable wear over time.
This range is commonly used in bistros, casual dining restaurants, pub kitchens, and café settings where operators want to reinforce a relaxed, rustic aesthetic without sacrificing durability. It works particularly well alongside natural textures — wood, slate, and matte ceramics — and pairs naturally with a broadly vintage or industrial interior theme.
Supplied in packs of 12, the Durban dessert spoon is a straightforward addition to an existing cutlery complement or a starting point for building a full table setting within the range. Bear in mind that 18/0 stainless steel, while entirely practical for commercial use, offers slightly less corrosion resistance over the long term compared to 18/10 grades, so ensuring thorough drying after machine washing will help maintain the finish.
If you're building out a full cover or matching across multiple cutlery pieces, our team can help you confirm the right quantities and ensure consistency across the range — feel free to get in touch before placing a larger order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, the stonewashed finish is well suited to commercial machine washing and everyday service use. As with all 18/0 stainless steel cutlery, ensuring pieces are thoroughly dried after washing will help maintain the finish and minimise any risk of surface spotting over time.
- This depends on your cover count, table turnover, and how frequently your dishwasher cycles run during service. As a general guide, most operators carry two to three times their cover count in each cutlery piece to allow for washing turnaround. If you're planning a full fit-out, it's worth working through the quantities before ordering.
- The Sola Durban Vintage range includes multiple pieces across the table setting, so you can build a consistent cover. If you're looking to match across starters, mains, and dessert, get in touch and we can confirm availability and help you put together the right combination.
