Product Description
Do you love the sun-baked colors, santos figures, and hand-crafted pottery that define Southwestern style? Do you linger wistfully over magazine spreads of adobe ranches complete with vigas and Kiva fireplaces? If so, this flatware pattern will surely make your heart beat a little faster. Its motifs recall the silverwork seen on old Spanish-Mexican bridles, saddles and other leatherwork.

Crafted with the beauty of Southwestern jewelry, Taos flatware from Wallace creates an authentic, welcoming mood at the table. Each piece features a broad, rounded handle set with a combination of sculptural motifs, both raised and stamped. The effect is distinctive without strain, and the substantial design goes well with simple dinnerware or handcrafted pottery. Made from durable 18/8 stainless steel with a lustrous finish, Taos is corrosion-resistant and safe in the dishwasher. The 77-piece set is ideal for large families or households where festive gatherings are the norm. It includes 12 complete place settings, each with a 9-inch knife, a 7-3/4-inch place fork, a 7-inch salad fork, a 6-7/8-inch soup spoon, and a 6-1/4-inch place spoon. The five-piece hostess set includes a serving spoon, a pierced serving spoon, a cold meat fork, a sugar spoon, and a butter knife. A set of 12 steak knives is also included. A great frequent-use set for an artful sensibility, this collection carries a 25-year warranty. --Emily Bedard What's in the Box

 18/8, Mirror finish? January 13, 2007
Elliemae (Lake Tahoe, CA USA)

I bought this set from Barron's because the shipping cost was quite a savings. The box on my set clearly states 18/10, even though Barron's advertised it as 18/8 and the pieces are stamped 18/10 China. I didn't know what to expect because the product information didn't seem to be consistent here either. Mine, unexpectedly, has a satin finish over all. The picture at Barron's appeared mirror and this seller says mirror. Maybe this set is mirror finish, but looking closely at the picture, I doubt it. Despite these inconsistencies and mirror or not, it's a beautiful and versatile set. I'm not disappointed.
Great Set - In Use for 5 Years September 7, 2006

I read the other reviewer's comments and was shocked. Perhaps that person has a defective set that should have been returned. I live in the Southwest and have been using my Taos flatware for every day dining since 2001, and I have had zero problems. Nada. No nicks, no rust, and I love them because they match my decor and are very comfortable to hold and use. I am looking to buy more because so many of my pieces have disappeared (probably dumped into the garbage when guests cleaned up after themselves - Mother warned me about that!).
 Great look but low on quality July 11, 2004

We live in the southwest and I love the rustic look of the Taos flatware set. However, beyond the look there is not a lot of quality behind the design. The forks are what I dislike most because the ends of the tines are so thick and poorly crafted you can't stab a piece of lettuce to save your life. Also, the "stainless" part must be a thin veneer, since a couple of pieces have nicks through the outer layer (and keep in mind this is a new set) and that inner layer will lay a rust stain over the bottom of the sink in a short amount of time. All that said, I keep it for everyday use but wash it by hand.
