Iona flatware

"My husband and I bought the flatware and serving pieces about 1 month ago. We love it. We have run it all in the dishwasher - numerous times, no issues. (rusting, dulling). The weight and feel of the pieces are excellent. We are very satisfied with this set."

Good everyday flatware

"We received these from our registry and they are very good quality, dishwasher safe and durable. They are also nice enough to use for dinner parties, etc. Good value and I expect them to last indefinitely. Glad that they still carry this line as some pieces have gone missing over the past few years and I need to replace them!"

Great for Everything

"My husband and I registered for the Iona flatware and are very pleased with the quality and yeah it's beautiful. I had be using my mother's horrid betty crocker flatware for 14 years ever since I left for college. It kind of made me sad. Everyday was 1984 - not in a good way.
We now have 16 sets of the Iona flatware. I was one of my favorite wedding gifts. It only took me to my thirties to finally get my own flatware. I was able to give my mother her betty crocker flatware back. It was a good day indeed.
We now have enough to set a table for twelve and even have a few left over. We did not register for formal silver. Who actually uses silver anymore? I say find a pattern that is classic and beautiful like the Iona, get a lot of it and forget the silver. I am very pleased with my purchase."

great flatware

"Hi,
I bought 12 settings to replace our old silverware. The silverware looks just like the picture, is easy to clean and is thus far wearing very well."

Iona Flatware

"Absolutely LOVE this flatware!! It's sleek and shiny, yet feels heavy enough in your hand to that it is comfortable. I have been putting them in the dishwasher and I also haven't noticed any rust spots on the knives yet. Great product!!"

Love

"My husband and I registered for these for our wedding and they were our favorite gift received! The shape of the spoons worried me a little when looking at them because they're so different than "regular" spoons, but now that i've used them, they're perfect. Each piece is a really nice weight and I love the smooth finish. The only weird thing is that there isn't much size difference between the two forks. I kind of wish the smallest one were a little smaller because it's hard to tell which is which – but that's not really a big deal."

So pleased!

"My husband and I couldn't be happier with the Iona pieces we received for our wedding for our everyday flatware! We use the pieces every day (although we both prefer the smaller forks and spoons), and they are a great weight and feel. I'm such a fan of how smooth and flowing the design is, and after a year of use, they look just as great as when we received them!"

Modern and Elegant

"Just replaced our old flatware set with the Iona pattern and we couldn't be happier. Each piece is slender yet perfectly weighted, even for my husband. The high shine seems to be holding up well in the dishwasher too. The only draw back is that there aren't many matching serving pieces, but we've found pieces in other patterns that match close enough."

Our Favorite

"We liked the first eight place settings of this so much, we decided to buy 4 more. It looks good, feels good and is of the highest quality. We will be using these for years to come."

Wedding gift

"I purchased this flatware for my son and his bride to be, including the serving pieces. The set is just as pictured, smooth and svelte, and lovely to hold. It has a nice weight to it, without being either too light or too heavy. I would highly recommend this flatware to anyone who is looking to add function and beauty to their service pieces."

Great flatware!

"My husband and I received 8 place settings for our wedding and could not be happier. When I let him choose the flatware while we were registering, I was a little dubious of how modern they looked, but I've lost any doubt- the set is gorgeous. They really pair well with any dish, and, as other reviewers have noted, the weight is very nice.
I did not have any issues with the deepness of the soup spoon, as a few others have. Maybe I have a big mouth?"

Beautiful flatware

"We registered for these for our wedding and have been using them for a couple months now. They have a nice feel in your hand and are elegant, but not too modern looking. They have held up well (granted, it's only been a couple months) but we've had no problems whatsoever."

elegant

"I reviewed this once already (maybe under the 20-piece set? it's not here) when we registered for these and started getting some. Well, months into married life, I still love this pattern! I wanted something classic with a twist, and the slender lines are a fabulous twist. It's so extremely graceful. I can't say it enough. It's so funny what the other reviewer said about the soup spoon. I have to flip it over, too! But I love the size of the pieces over all -- almost continental. My other big criteria for flatware was that it had to be smooth so that food wouldn't get stuck in any embossed pattern or nooks. This fits the bill. We don't have a dish washer, so I dry these with flour sack towels (also highly recommend) to prevent spots. They have gotten a tiny bit dinged, but then again, so have our wedding bands, and they were much more expensive!"

Look forward to eating :)

"The Iona flatware are beautiful. We love how they feel in our hands... we dig through the old stuff to get to the Iona. One thing I have to say though that we don't care for is the soup spoon. It is SO BIG and deep. Our old flatware was wider and not as deep so you could get every morsel in your mouth at once. With this spoon you have to flip the spoon over and use your tongue to get to the very bottom. I know this may sound weird, but I had never though about a spoon being too deep. Maybe my mouth is small... I don't know but my husband complained about it too. Anyhow... overall we love them... just that one nit pick."

"This flatware is very heavy and feels great in the hand. We put our flatware through some very serious use (and misuse) and this has held up wonderfully)."
