The Milena flatware set from Henckels provides the enduring shine and durability of 18/10 stainless steel in a design that's stylish, too. Curved handles with banded accents define place settings and serving pieces for every occasion. Henckels flatware is heavy gauge weight, produced from 18/10 stainless steel. The 18% chrome provides for maximum corrosion resistance and the 10% nickel gives each piece a brilliant finish. Other products that do not claim to be produced from 18/10 stainless steel or that use 18/0 stainless steel do not offer these benefits and can corrode in a short time of use.
