Product Details

Café stainless steel cutlery embodies Mellor's revolutionary philosophy of design, uplifting even the seemingly most mundane of objects to a new level of beauty and utility.

Robust, well designed, everyday cutlery. This modern, minimalist classic originated in the 1960s and has been in continuous production ever since.

Its story began in the 1960s when Mellor was commissioned by the Ministry of Public Building and Works to create a basic set of cutlery for use in government establishments, hospitals, schools, prisons, and railways.

Mellor responded with his most socially radical creation, reducing the standard 11-piece cutlery set to just five implements without compromising their versatility.

  • Beautifully simple 18/10 stainless steel cutlery, satin finish
  • Dishwasher-safe
  • Available as a six-piece set, with items also available to purchase individually

Café is an excellent example of Mellor's belief that good design should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their budget. Its simple, flowing lines are a pleasure, and its ergonomic design is unparalleled in basic cutlery.

The set's satin finish adds charm, while its knife blades are crafted from high-carbon stainless steel for a superior cutting edge.

CAFE is as good to use as the more expensive ranges from David Mellor - as ergonomically perfect as it is possible for basic cutlery to be.

Knife blades are made from high carbon stainless steel for a superior cutting edge.

CAFE comes in a 6 piece place set, and all pieces can be purchased individually.

About the Brand

David Mellor Design operates on the simple principle that well designed tableware is a vital part of any interior. The company was set up by David Mellor, Royal Designer for Industry, in the 1950s.

David Mellor Design runs its own design office within the company and so the David Mellor collection is constantly evolving. Many of the products are designed by Corin Mellor, Creative Director, exclusively for the David Mellor shops and are produced by specially selected workshop producers and manufacturers.

David Mellor now holds one of the most impressive collections of the finest British Crafts and sophisticated modern tableware and kitchenware, including the world famous David Mellor Cutlery, to be found on the international scene.

As specialists, we have cutlery to match most budgets and tastes – our range encompasses outstanding contemporary cutlery styles, ornate and flamboyant designs and all the most famous traditional English patterns.

In addition to our own Sheffield cutlery, we partner other leading brands to ensure that we offer the most comprehensive range of sterling silver, silver plated and stainless steel cutlery available in the UK today

By bringing you cutlery direct from the manufacturer to your table top, we offer much better prices than you will find in the shops.

We undertstand that dining habits are changing – and there is no ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to a cutlery set. That’s why every cutlery range we offer is available as individual pieces – allowing you to choose the right quantity for your needs.

Within most of the cutlery ranges we sell the cutlery sets are progressively discounted; versus the price of the equivalent number of individual pieces. That means the more you buy, the more you save!
