Actual Teaspoon Sized Teaspoon
I love these spoons! They are heavy, smooth, brightly polished, neutral looking, were a good price (I paid about $20 for 12) and best of all they are TEASPOON SIZED! They may be a tiny bit larger than vintage teaspoons, but these are not the ridiculous wide tablespoons everyone seems to try to pass off now as “dinner spoons”. I have had a hard time finding these, even looked for long demitasse spoons hoping they’d work. Anyway I bought a 12 pack to replace the teaspoons that my children like to vanish, and the quality is so nice I’m buying a 12 pack of the dinner forks and butter knives to have matching basics when family visits. The stamp on the back says “Artiste 18/10 China”.

High quality and great value
I bought a set of spoons and forks in this design and I am very happy with what I received. The spoons and forks are both extremely sturdy, with no noticeable defects such as sharp edges or evidence of rusting. The metal feels heavy and high quality, but not unwieldy. The spoons are a nice shape and size and would hold up to the most frozen pint of ice cream easily. I wish the handles were a bit longer on both sets. While the ladle end of the spoon is a perfectly good size for normal adult use, the handles are definitely on the short side. But that is not the fault of the product - the listings were accurately described as far as the dimensions, I just didn’t realize I would want something with a longer handle. Something to keep in mind if that is something you care about. To me, it is not a big deal at all and the good design and quality materials make this a quality purchase.

Beautiful & strong
Perfect replacement spoons (although not matching) for a 40-year-old set. One of these days we'll buy a full set of matching dinnerware, but in the meantime you gotta eat. I would have liked to find a nice-looking set with a wider neck, but while this one looks very, very thin, it's strong enough you don't worry about it bending. Well made, shiny & pretty, at a great price point.

It's a good spoon
These have good weight and feel. Plain design. They are a little bigger than our other teaspoons, which is the only thing I wish was different.

Love these spoons!
I have never had a nice set of silverware. My spoons were ordered from a military supply catalog years ago and have neither a brand name or note on them as to material content. Any replacements I bought from a popular cheapie store for 50 cents each or maybe one dollar. I've attached photos of the spoons I've had for 20 years, in the middle. They're fine. My latest replacement spoon is on the right. A bit longer than my old spoons. The new spoon is on the LEFT. A bit longer than my old spoons, a bit shorter than replacements, and the "spoon" part is bigger than both, which I really like. Love the weight of these, and the shine. I wanted 18/10 as I read these were sturdier than 18/0 or 18/8, and they certainly are. A really great price on this set of twelve, as well!

Great Quality Product At An Amazing Price Point
I just received my Artaste 18/10 stainless steel spoons. They were packaged in a nice and sturdy box that could even be a used a gift box if someone wanted these as a wedding gift etc. Inside the box, the spoons were individually wrapped in plastic and then bundle wrapped in bubble wrap. The spoons were then affixed to an interior box pullout using a zip tie to keep the spoons from moving around the box. The company spent money on good quality boxes and took the time to ensure these spoons will arrive in perfect condition. The spoon itself manufactured out of 18/10 stainless steel and it is beautifully ground with no sharp edges and has a nice weight; it’s definitely not some flimsy piece of metal. Last, the price point for these spoons is great at $21.97. These spoons are good quality product, at the same level as Oneida's higher quality flatware. I definitely recommend Artaste 18/10 stainless steel spoons and would not hesitate to buy again.****** Please let me know if this review was helpful by clicking the “Helpful” button below*****THANK YOU!

Happy with my purchase
I bought the spoons and they are really very nice. Simple, elegant design, very high shine. All the edges are smooth and polished. These are extremely nice and the price is appealing too. I read reviews on lower priced pieces and decided to put out the extra money for a more quality piece. I needed to replace some of my teaspoons from my Reed and Barton set that were missing. The pattern of the handle is nowhere close to a match but I like the simplicity of these. My only complaint, and it is a very minor one, is that the bowl of the spoon doesn't seem to be quite as deep as my other teaspoons. I say it's a minor complaint because I don't use them for measuring when baking/cooking so it doesn't need to be accurate....that's what measuring spoons are for.These spoons came beautifully packaged in a nice sturdy, elegant box. Inside, a printed card with info on the manufacturer, a thin foam insert covering the spoons which were each placed in a plastic sleeve and banded together inside a larger plastic sleeve. They're 18/10 mirror finish stainless steel. I recommend these if you're looking for flatware.
