What is the difference between a Turkish knife and a French knife?

A Turkish knife is typically longer and thinner than a French knife. Turkish knives are also usually made of softer steel, which makes them less likely to chip or break. However, this means that they will need to be sharpened more often. French knives are shorter and have a thicker blade. They are made of harder steel, which makes them more durable but also more likely to chip or break if not used properly.

What are the benefits of Turkish knives?

Turkish knives are known for their sharpness and quality. They're also often more decorative than other types of knives, with intricate designs and embellishments. Loftry offers a great selection of both stainless steel and Turkish knives.

Should you wash Turkish ceramic/porcelain tableware with hot or cold water?

It is best to wash Turkish ceramic and porcelain tableware with cold water. Hot water can cause the colors of the patterns to fade over time. In addition, it is important to avoid using abrasive cleaners on these pieces, as they can damage the delicate designs.

Taking proper care of your Turkish tableware will ensure that it lasts for many years to come. Most pieces are safe to wash in the dishwasher, but it’s always best to check the manufacturer’s instructions before washing. To avoid scratching delicate patterns, wash Turkish coffee cups and plates by hand using a soft sponge or cloth. When storing your tableware, be sure to wrap each piece individually in acid-free tissue paper to prevent damage. With proper care, your Turkish tableware will continue to bring beauty and joy to your home for many years to come.
