Elia Viola Solid Table Knives 18/10 Stainless Steel (12 Pack)

The Elia Viola table knife is a one-piece 18/10 stainless steel knife finished to a mirror polish. The design follows clean, contemporary lines without ornate detailing, making it a straightforward choice for operators who want a consistent, modern table setting across covers. It sits comfortably within both formal dining and relaxed service environments without looking out of place in either.

In day-to-day service the Viola holds up well to the routine of commercial use — repeated dishwasher cycles, high cover volumes, and the general handling knives receive in a busy front-of-house operation. The 18/10 steel grade offers good resistance to tarnishing and corrosion, which matters when cutlery is being washed multiple times daily. The one-piece construction removes the risk of handle separation that can occur with filled or hollow-handled alternatives over time.

• Mirror-polished finish maintains a presentable appearance through regular service cycles
• Dishwasher safe, supporting efficient post-service turnaround
• One-piece construction avoids the wear points common in filled-handle designs
• Heavy gauge provides a reassuring feel that reads as quality to the guest
• Supplied in a pack of 12, suited to topping up existing Viola covers or starting a new set

The Viola is well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and event caterers looking for a clean contemporary style at a practical price point. It sits in the mid-range of the Elia cutlery catalogue — operators with higher-volume or more formal requirements may find heavier or more elaborately finished patterns within the range a better fit, while those running high-turnover casual dining may prefer a more entry-level option.

If you are building out a full Viola cover or mixing patterns across a new opening, it is worth a conversation with the team to make sure the pieces work together before you commit to quantities.
