Flatware is not especially easy to shop for online &#; or in general, for that matter. There is just a lot to consider: weight, style, materials, dishwashability &#; and much of it looks so similar. So we decided to piece together a guide that would both help a novice know where to start and surface unusual sets for those who want something beyond the basics for a wedding registry or cutlery-drawer refresh. Most modern flatware is made of stainless steel, making a lot of it more affordable than the silverware of yore. Dung Ngo, the editor-in-chief of August, a design-and-travel journal and small press, says that stainless steel actually &#;democratized cutlery for everyone.&#; Ngo, a flatware collector who runs an Instagram account dedicated to utensils, explains the change from silver to steel followed the advent of the Bauhaus and other early 20th-century design movements that celebrated everyday substances like plywood, plastic, and stainless steel. If you&#;re not going with actual silver, we found, it&#;s best to try pieces made with 18/10 stainless steel &#; &#;the safest option if you want heft and something that will stand up to daily abuse,&#; according to Kelsey Keith, the editorial director for Herman Miller. The 53 sets below include something for most everyone, from traditional silverware, to traditional-looking (silver-colored) flatware made of stainless steel, to some rainbow-colored utensils beloved by writer Chloe Malle, to the official flatware of the Munich Olympics, which Ngo calls &#;the Rolls-Royce of cutlery.&#; Beneath all the sets, there are also standout singles &#; from soup spoons to knives with circular heads &#; for those who like to mix and match.

The Interior-Designer Favorite

Burke Decor Prism Flatware Five-Piece Set

$100

Photo: Retailer

Combining three trends in one &#; gold, mixed materials, and color &#; Burke Decor&#;s Prism flatware set in tortoise was recommended by three interior designers, including Leah Alexander, Decorist designer Tina MartinDelCampo, and Modsy&#;s creative stylist Karina Lameraner, who calls it &#;a statement by itself.&#; Alexander agrees, telling us the flatware has a &#;chic and energetic&#; quality to it. The pieces are made of 18/10 stainless steel and acrylic; while the brand says they&#;re dishwasher-safe on a low-temperature setting, it recommends hand-washing as a better way to preserve the materials and construction.

The Could-Go-Anywhere Set

Sabre Bistro Shiny Solid Flatware 4-Piece Set - Black

Bistro-style flatware, a classic of French design, is typically characterized by handles made of a nonmetal material, which give the pieces a more casual feel. (Some of these handles have little rivets that are used to hold their nonmetal parts to their metal bodies.) &#;I&#;ve always loved these because of their high-low design approach,&#; says Shane Davis, a partner and the creative director of community space Public Records, of this set of French-made flatware. &#;I can just as easily see them in a fine-dining restaurant as I can in a school cafeteria.&#; It has another fan in Claire Olshan, the founder of snack brand Dada Daily, who says the 18/10 stainless steel, dishwasher-safe flatware evokes &#;beauty, femininity, and untouched rawness of nature.&#;

The Café Kitsuné President&#;s Favorite

Sambonet Linea Q 18/10 Stainless-Steel Five-Piece Place Setting

$90

According to Vinod Kasturi, the president of Maison Kitsuné and Café Kitsuné in the Americas, the Linea Q flatware (which interior designer Elaine Griffin also happens to use) &#;has low-key swag.&#; He says the &#;squared-off ends make it feel contemporary,&#; but the pieces still have a &#;simple, classic style.&#; Made of lightweight 18/10 stainless steel, Kasturi sums up the appeal of the set (which also comes in black) this way: &#;It&#;s no-frills, super high-quality, and still looks fresh after infinite dishwasher cycles.&#;

Decorist designer Christina Manzo calls it &#;a beautiful everyday set that&#;s simple and elegant,&#; adding that the brushed finish on the 18/10 stainless-steel utensils &#;gives them a unique aesthetic that can easily transition from casual brunches to formal dinners.&#; While this set can be put in a dishwasher, the manufacturer recommends hand-washing. Shown as a set for one place setting, you can also get a set with 20 utensils (enough for four settings) for $160.
