The CuTlery,
CabineT & Table
ColleCTion
In the last quarter of the 20th century when the
tabletop industry in Europe was in serious decline,
a young Sheffield man called Ron Carr built a
manufacturing silverware business from scratch
to become the largest in the UK.
From a rented workshop at £2 per week, to a purpose built state of the art
factory of nearly 100,000 sq ft, plus satellite units and a number of local
sub-contractors spells a mammoth task of dedication to making a top class
product for a worldwide audience.
The Carrs range embraces the
most comprehensive variety of
silverware manufactured in the
UK, backed up by a young
design team that ensures that
the company stays in the
forefront of world style and
fashion, whilst still reflecting
the best of British tradition.
One of the keys to success
has been that of self-sufficiency,
so much so that silver is melted,
cast and rolled at one end of the
factory and emerges at the other
as a finished product.
Woodworking and cutlery
manufacturing divisions, together
with the first in-house hallmarking
operation, provided by the
Sheffield Assay Office, complete
this unique self-contained
manufacturing facility.
The recent acquisition by Carrs
of the largest cutlery blanks
manufacturing organisation in
the UK, has now given the
company access to probably
the most comprehensive range
of cutlery patterns to be found
anywhere in Europe.
Carrs export to over 60 countries,
representing 50% of its turnover.
This achievement was recognised
when Carrs received The Queens
Award for Export Achievement.
The company has also won
Retail Jewellers Brand Object
of the Year, more than once.
A prestigious concession in the
Silver Room in Harrods heads up
the 2500 plus UK outlets, offering
everything from a tooth fairy to a
top of the range hand made table
containing the most elaborate
range of sterling silver cutlery that
you could imagine.

Sterling Silver
EPNS - Electro Plated Nickel Silver
PATTERNS
Sterling silver has a minimum of 925 parts purity out of 1000, the
remaining parts being copper, which improves the malleability of the
silver. The marks denote that each piece has been independently
tested by one of the four official assay offices in the UK and that it
conforms to the legal standards of the fineness or purity. The symbols
for sterling silver are:
EPNS cutlery features a coating of pure silver which is deposited by the
process of electrolysis, onto a brass alloy of copper, zinc and nickel,
traditionally known as ‘nickel silver’. Carrs cutlery is silver plated to a
generous thickness of 20 microns, which under normal domestic use
and following some simple ‘care of cutlery’ guidelines, carries a 50 year
manufacturers guarantee.

Traditionally, sterling silver is the finest material for cutlery, guaranteed
to last a lifetime. Carrs cutlery is beautifully crafted and finished to the
highest quality, using traditional hand polishing methods. Sterling silver
cutlery is designed to be used. It possesses inert properties that make
it practical and aesthetic qualities that make it the most desirable of
table top accessories. With regular use silver cutlery displays a most
attractive ‘patina’, which is an optical effect, created by the multitude of
very fine scratches that develop during normal use.
Over a period of time, silver plated cutlery will also display the same
aesthetically pleasing patina characteristic of sterling silver cutlery.
18/10 Stainless Steel
Stainless steel cutlery is strong, highly resistant to staining, scratching
and abrasion. It is the overwhelming choice for most food preparation
and serving applications. The 18/10 refers to the 18% chrome and
10% nickel content of the stainless steel alloy, which gives it all of these
qualities, including its bright, silvery sheen.
Knife Blades
All knife blades are made from high quality stainless steel, providing a
strong, flexible and long lasting cutting edge.

OLD ENGLISH
BAGuette
Originating in the 1760’s in the reign of George III, its appeal lies
in its simplicity, graceful line and simple decorative pip. It forms
the basis for many more decorative versions.
A classic French interpretation of the ribbed feature of Rattail.
It was created in 1929 and accentuates the strength of the
Continental shape.
Available in Sterling Silver, EPNS and Stainless Steel.
Available in Sterling Silver and EPNS.

plain fiddle
rattail
The original Fiddle design appeared in the 1780’s and its name
is derived from the handle being shaped like a violin body. It was
often used as a basic shape for more decorative styles such as
Fiddle Thread and Shell. The pattern is echoed in the pip on the
reverse of the handle.
The oldest of the English designs dating from the early 1600’s with
the distinctive ‘tail’ on the backs of the spoon bowls and forks. This
feature developed in an age when craftsmen made spoons in two
pieces joining the bowl and handle together, by means of soldering
using a tapered tail as additional strength to the joint. This design
also features a prominent rib down the front of the handle.

grecian
Designed in the mid 1930’s by W. Butterall and influenced
by the softer lines of the earlier Grecian pattern.
A simple classical style with bevelled edge and angled corners.
Designed in Sheffield in 1929 and with Art Deco influence.

bead
dubArry
Hester Bateman, a leading English lady silversmith, designed
this pattern using a simple beaded border on the Old English
shape, in a Neo-classical style. The bead originated from the
popularity of bead jewellery during this time.
A twentieth century design mimicking the Baroque curves
of the famous furniture maker Chippendale.

and a flame at the head, in celebration of the British Empire.

Another decoration on the Old English pattern, originally added by hand
engraving with the engraver using a technique known as ‘feathering’,
with the obvious resemblance to a feather. From the Hanoverian period.

Designed by W. Pulling and W. Turner in 1925 with a single line
border and simple scroll at the handle tip.
17

Based on a design by a famous London silversmith in
the late 18th Century.

19
la regence
kings
This design was introduced in France during the time of
Napoleon II. The flowing leaf pattern, shell and scroll edging
are typical of the designs from this period and the flared
handles on the spoon and fork reflect the Continental
patterns of the 19th Century.
Featuring the honeysuckle flowers and shell motif this was
designed at the same time as Queens by the brothers
John and Henry Lias.
20
queens
Like the pack of cards the Queens design is a more elaborate
version of Kings with more foliate scrolls and flowers. Credited
to the silversmithing brothers, John and Henry Lias in the
1830’s when George IV was on the throne.

SPOOnS And FORKS
HOllOW HAndlE KnivES
TAKing CARE OF YOUR CUTlERY
diSHWASHERS
Spoons and forks are stamped out from rolled sheet whether the
material be stainless steel, nickel or sterling silver. The outline blanks
are pressed out two at a time leaving a webbing which is recycled.
in the case of spoons the bowl area is rolled twice to provide enough
material to stamp and form a pleasant usable thickness. The handle
design is then stamped in between a top and bottom die. in the case
of spoons, the bowls are stamped and clipped whereas the forks are
pierced once for nickel and silver and twice for stainless steel to form
the prongs.
Knives with separate handles have as many as 60 processes in
manufacturing the complete article. The blade is hot forged from bar
and the bolster is formed under a hammer between dies and the blade
is rolled to correct thickness. Both ends are then clipped to form the
final shape. The handles like the spoon and fork are stamped from
rolled sheet but from a thinner gauge. The pattern is pressed into a
single half and after clipping the waste away, they are joined together
in a furnace.
To help preserve the condition of your cutlery we recommend you
follow these simple guidelines when washing and storing your cutlery.
• Always follow the dishwasher manufacturer’s instructions.
All items are then edged and the prongs are shaped prior to polishing.
Sterling silver cutlery has special attention during all processes but
particularly in polishing. Stainless steel is simply polished then cleaned
and inspected whereas nickel goes on to be silver plated before final
finishes and inspection. Thickness of plate is variable dependant on
the amount of time the article is submersed in the plating vat.
The blade and the handle continue to be processed separately
as the blade has each cutting surface individually ground and the
bolster and back ground before rumbling, grazing and polishing.
The handle is pressure tested, edged, glazed and polished and like
spoons, and forks if nickel is silver plated. The handle and blade
are joined together with a cement that is inert and enables our knives
to withstand any weight or twist tests that comply with all international
standards including iSO 9002.
The blades are etched with the appropriate brand name
and whetted as part of their final processes before cleaning,
nspecting and wrapping.
• For normal hygiene reasons the cutlery should be washed
before use.
• Do not leave the cutlery to soak or store in damp conditions.
• Rinse or wash immediately after use.
• Do not leave cutlery for any length of time with food on it.
Prolonged contact with certain foods such as salt, eggs,
acid fruits and vinegars can cause stains and marks to occur.
These should be promptly removed.
• Never use abrasive polishes.
• Store in a canteen or cutlery roll.
HAnd-WASHing
• Use a domestic liquid detergent and warm water, dry thoroughly with
a soft cloth.
Design by: www.vividcreative.com © 2009 V5523
• Put knives with their blades facing down in a separate compartment
to the spoons and forks.
• Avoid using the rinse and hold cycle.
• As soon as the cleaning cycle is complete, remove cutlery and dry
with a soft cloth.
• Do not mix sterling silver, silver plated and stainless steel items in
the same cycle.
Silver is a soft material and scratches more easily than stainless
steel. Over a period of time the tiny scratches build up to produce
an attractive patina, this is a natural occurrence characteristic
of fine silver.
Please note that Carrs knives are very sharp, exercise caution
when handling.
