Dona Hand Forged Plated 20pc Stainless Steel Silverware Flatware Set Service For 4 by David Shaw (Black)

This flatware set is very attractive. They are functional in the fact that they serve their purpose. Unfortunately being forged steel, they are overweighted in the handle. This causes the flatware to fall off of your plate easily. The coating on the flatware wears easy as well. In under a years time I started noticing the ends and edges wearing off. The finish is however very appealing. So overall this set is very sturdy and attractive but not balanced well and the finish wear easy. At a lower cost, this set of flatware would be a better value but not at its current asking price.

Love these, they are sturdy and a good weight (which I like). But the copper coloring isn't totally even, there are some spots that are black. I'm not sure if the black is under the copper or over it, but it doesn't come off. It's not noticeable enough that I care (I use these for our patio table), just something to be aware of.

These are so unique and beautiful.

By far the most expensive silverware I bought . Not sure if I got a defect but I left these in the sink over night with my plates and these ended up looking like this ... hopefully they will replace because this wouldn’t happen
