What does 18/10, 18/8, and 18/0 stainless mean?
These percentages represent the amount of chrome and nickel in the steel alloy that we use to make our products. Chrome is added to aid the steel in corrosion resistance and the nickel is added for a soft, silver-like luster. 18/10 means that the metal has 18% chrome and 10% nickel. 18/8 stainless has 18% and 8% nickel. 18/0 has 18% chrome and 0% nickel.

Why do stains occur on some stainless?
It is stainless ... not stain proof. Discoloration can be caused by ingredients found in tea, coffee, salad dressing, vinegar and salt. Pitting or spotting are usually caused by hard water or from foods with high salt content.

How do I remove stains?
Use a good quality stainless cleaner (we recommend Oneida's own stainless cleaner) to remove the "build up" caused by minerals.

Is Oneida stainless dishwasher safe?
Yes! Your Oneida stainless flatware is meant to be used and enjoyed. We suggest that you rinse your flatware after use before placing in the dishwasher. Any scented detergent (i.e. lemon or orange) is not suggested.

How should flatware be put into the dishwasher?
Load the dishwasher with handles of the spoons and forks facing down and the handles of the knives up.

How should one care for sterling, silverplate, or gold plated flatware?
When not in use, keep these types of flatware in a closed drawer or chest lined with tarnish-resistant cloth. We do not recommend any of these three metals to be put in the dishwasher. If you choose to place them in a dishwasher, ensure that you do not mix metals in the same load. Remove flatware before the drying cycle and hand dry. Also, many automatic dishwashing detergents contain bleach that may remove the oxidation that was used to highlight pattern detail. Sterling
and Silverplate do require periodic polishing with high-quality silver polish.

What is "open stock"?
Open stock means that individual serving and place setting pieces are available to be purchased separately. This allows you to replace pieces that may be lost or damaged or add to your set over time. All patterns in our “Patterns for a Lifetime” program have the widest variety of open stock availability. Not all patterns have open stock items.

What is in a Hostess Set, Serving Set and an Entertainment Set?
A simple way to remember what pieces are in a Hostess Set is: The word Hostess starts with an "H" everything in a Hostess Set holds something.
Hostess Set: Gravy Ladle, Tablespoon, Sugar Spoon
Serving Set: Serving Fork, Butter Knife, Pierced Tablespoon
Entertainment Set: Casserole Spoon, Dessert Server

What is the difference between ceramic, stoneware, and earthenware?
Ceramic is the term used to describe all kinds of fired clay product. Earthenware is product fired at the lowest temperature and is much more delicate- almost always requires hand washing and is not for microwave use. Stoneware is fired at a much higher temperature than earthenware.. and as a result is much more durable than earthenware- it is harder,can stand up to the dishwasher and is generally microwave safe.

What do you mean when you say decaled dinnerware?
A decal is the pattern that is applied to dinnerware prior to firing. Decals are applied as a sheet, much the same way you would apply a stick-on tattoo. The decal is slid off a paper backing and it sticks to the unfired ceramic, then a factory worker gently squeegies any residual water and air bubbles out from under the decal. Once applied the entire piece goes into the kiln.

How can hand painted dinnerware be so affordable? Is it really hand painted?
Hand painted product is indeed that, the glazes are applied one color at a time by brush directly to the surface of the ceramic pre-firing. Completed hand painted product may be painted by a number of workers, each applying a separate color or working on one part of the design.

Does Oneida dinnerware meet FDA standards for lead and cadmium content?
Yes, all Oneida dinnerware meets or exceeds the FDA standards. The United States Food and Drug Administration has very strict standards as to the level of these particles that are acceptable. All dinnerware for sale in the US must meet these standards and we are extremely diligent in fully complying with these standards.

Does Oneida Crystal contain lead?
No, lead is usually added to crystal only if has an etched or cut design. Our Crystal is lead-free.
