Amazon.com Review
Lafayette is one of Ginkgo's top-selling flatware patterns, and with good reason. While the pieces are elegant enough for a formal occasion, the hammered finish on the handles provides a casual, almost handmade appeal. The handles taper from a slender neck to a rounded tab end which lifts up off the table. The spoon bowls are squared off for a contemporary look, the forks feature extra-long tines, and the knife is constructed of one solid piece. This 45-piece set includes eight place settings, each consisting of a 9-1/2-inch dinner knife, 8-inch dinner fork, 7-inch salad fork, 7-1/2-inch soup spoon, and 6-3/8-inch teaspoon. Accessorizing the settings to complete a well-coordinated table is a five-piece hostess set, comprised of a 9-inch serving spoon, 9-inch pierced spoon, 8-1/4-inch cold meat fork, 7-inch pointed butter knife, and 7-inch sauce or gravy ladle. Brightly polished, Lafayette is made of moderately priced 18/10 stainless steel and is dishwasher-safe, making it ideal for everyday use. A family-owned business since 1977, Ginkgo International is dedicated to quality design and value when it comes to flatware for the home. --Ann Bieri What's in the Box 8 place settings, 5 serving pieces. Each place setting consists of: 9-1/2-inch dinner knife; 8-inch dinner fork; 7-inch salad fork; 7-1/2-inch soup spoon; 6-3/8-inch teaspoon. Service set consists of: 9-inch serving spoon; 9-inch pierced spoon; 8-1/4-inch cold meat fork; 7-inch butter knife; 7-inch ladle. 45 pieces total. |

Nice looking pieces, good value by A. W. On (New York, NY USA)  4 Stars
August 04, 2008
I just purchased this set and really like the hammered looking finish. The pieces all feel very weighty and are good sized for those who like more substantial flatware. The only thing I would like to point out is that it is 18/0 and not 18/10 as Amazon's product description states. However, for the $100, I think the 45 piece set is a great value and I hope it lasts me a while. I have not given the product 5 stars as I haven't used the flatware for very long yet and cannot comment on its durability or tendency to rust.

Gorgeous! Very chic flatware. by Erin N. Budd (Rochester, NY)  5 Stars
April 15, 2008
Beautiful, modern, well designed flatware. It's a gorgeous set, with a very reasonable price for the quality. I highly recommend this silverware for anyone that wants a slightly modern look with high quality materials. I haven't used the set yet, as I am moving into my new apartment this weekend, but I am quite sure that this set is a winner.

Still Beautiful Tableware a Year Later... by TXCR (TX) 5 Stars
February 10, 2008
I received 8 place settings as a Christmas gift from my husband in 2006. This pattern is so beautiful I immediately went online to Amazon to order the steak knives, 2 hostess sets, the accessory set and an additional 4 place settings to round it out to 12. The design is a one of kind and I love the balance. They just feel good in your hand. I have never experienced any of the rust problems reported buy a couple of others reviewers. They will scratch with normal wear, but this really doesn't detract from the overall beauty.
We went to dinner recently at a local high end restaurant and we were surprised to see they set their tables with this pattern.
For Christmas 2007, my husband completed my Lafayette collection with the serving bowls, salt & pepper shakers, napkin rings, tray and water pitcher.
Go for it! You won't be disappointed.

Beautiful but it rusts by JL (Chicago)  1 Stars
February 03, 2008
I absolutely love this pattern. It's mirrored finish is just beautiful, and I've not been able to find anything else like it. The problem is, though, that it rusts. I've had 18/10 flatware before, and have never had this rust problem. The knives seem to rust on the actual smooth part as well as the hammered handle, and the others will get it on the handles. I'm so bummed because I can't find another pattern like it anywhere. So I have to give it only 1 star because of the rust.

Nice weight and size for bigger people by L. Raymond (Denver, CO) 5 Stars
January 02, 2008
We saw individual pieces of this pattern at a cook store, then went on line to find a complete set...we really liked the weight and size of the flatware, as we are both tall, larger-sized folk and other flatware seemed not as substantial and comfortable in our hands; really nice looking set and we are very happy with it after using it for a month or so...
