Product Description
The Sola Lima dessert fork is part of Churchill's Sola Lima cutlery range — a pattern designed to bring a tactile, artisan quality to the table. The hammered-effect finish gives each piece a distinctive texture that catches the light without looking fussy, making it a practical choice for operators who want tableware with a degree of character rather than a plain, utilitarian look.
Made from 18/0 stainless steel, these forks are well suited to high-turnover service environments. The 18/0 grade offers reliable corrosion resistance in regular commercial dishwasher cycles and holds its finish well under repeated use, though it is worth noting that 18/0 is less resistant to pitting than 18/10 in particularly harsh water conditions or where aggressive detergents are used at high temperatures.
- Hammered-effect finish adds texture and visual interest to the table
- Dishwasher safe, supporting efficient turnaround between covers
- Supplied in a pack of 12, practical for stocking and replenishment
- Consistent pattern across the Lima range for a coordinated table setting
At 191mm, the fork sits at a standard dessert length and works well alongside a broad range of plate sizes. The Lima pattern is part of a wider coordinated range, so operators building a full cutlery set can match across multiple pieces within the same collection.
This pattern suits restaurants, boutique hotels, or cafés looking for cutlery with a handcrafted aesthetic at a practical price point. For very high-volume contract catering where durability and cost-per-cover replacement are the primary concern, a simpler pattern in heavier gauge may be worth considering.
If you're selecting cutlery across multiple covers or building a full table setting, the team is happy to help you think through quantities and pattern coordination before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, 18/0 stainless steel is dishwasher safe and performs reliably in most commercial dishwasher environments. It is worth being mindful that in areas with very hard water or where particularly aggressive detergents are used at high temperatures, 18/0 can be marginally more susceptible to pitting than 18/10 over time. For the majority of restaurant and café operations, it presents no practical issue.
- The Sola Lima pattern is available across multiple cutlery pieces within the Churchill range, so coordinating a full table setting is straightforward. If you're looking to specify across table knives, dinner forks, soup spoons, and other pieces, the team can help confirm which items are available and assist with quantity planning.
- As a general guide, most operators plan for at least two to three times their seated cover count to allow for items in use, in the wash, and in reserve. For a 40-cover restaurant, that typically means a minimum of 80 to 120 dessert forks across the operation. If you'd like help working through quantities for your specific service pattern, the team is happy to advise.
