Like silver cutlery, WMF cutleries with Perfect Hard Silver-Plating have a high practical value, a high-grade glossiness, are dishwasher-safe, rust-proof and very hard-wearing. The basis material for silver-plated cutleries is Cromargan® or Alpaka (Alpaka or German silver is an alloy of 65% copper, 23% zinc and 12% nickel). A layer of silver is applied to this basis material in a galvanic bath. In addition, the silver plate is hardened (Perfect Hard Silver-Plated) in a silver bath according to special technique developed by WMF, which adds the typical glossiness to the silver-plated cutlery. This 90g silvering provides a special protection and makes silver-plated cutleries from WMF less sensitive to scratches. All WMF perfect-hard silver-plated cutlery collections at a glance: |
