About Episode's Silver Dining & Tableware Collection
A silver dinner set starts here, piece by piece: katoris and halwa bowls, plates, serving bowls and platters, tumblers, cutlery, trays and napkin rings, in silver plated and 92.5 sterling silver, from around ₹660. It's a collection built for buying slowly: a table can be put together over several years, one katori or tray at a time, and still hold together as one considered set.
Who It Is Best Suited For
If you're marking a wedding, an anniversary, a trousseau being put together over several years, or buying for a couple setting up together, a katori, a platter or a tray works well as a single considered piece, bought one piece at a time, building toward a full set slowly. If it's a new home you're setting up, the same kind of piece goes into daily use from the day it arrives, not tucked away for special occasions.
If you're ordering for a guest list, whether for return gifts, invitation gifts, or a corporate order carrying one engraved design across a whole team, the pattern changes: you're buying against a headcount rather than a household, usually on the smaller repeatable pieces, napkin rings among them, by the dozen.
Where a Silver Dining Set Starts
Five design lines carry through every piece type: Chandrika, Aster, Wave, Zeus and Fluted each run across the katori, halwa bowl, tumbler, platter, dinner spoon, dinner fork and dessert spoon. Choosing a line before adding the first piece means a silver dining set built inside it will match through to the seventh piece as closely as it did on the first, whether what's being built is a full place setting or the serveware, trays and barware that make up most of the collection. A silver plated dinner set follows the same path, chosen by line and gathered piece by piece.
What Silver Adds at the Table
Katoris, plates and cutlery are the pieces food touches directly, and silver carries none of the metallic taste that steel or aluminium can leave behind. A silver bowl and spoon also carries a particular weight and a cold-to-the-touch quality in the hand, the kind that solid metal carries and a thin coating doesn't. Serving from a silver bowl or platter changes how a table feels once there's company at it.
Care and Delivery
Katoris, plates and cutlery are left unlacquered for food contact and clean at home with a standard silver polish. Trays, napkin rings and the bar pieces that never meet a drink, among them tongs and bottle stands, carry a tarnish-resistant coat; these take a soft, moist cloth, never polish or an abrasive, and tea sets take the same cloth. Tumblers, wine glasses, ice buckets and jugs are coated outside and left bare inside, so the cloth handles the outside and the polish handles the inside. Sterling pieces come with a certificate of authenticity and a guarantee card, and every order ships free across India in gift-ready packaging.
