Cassiopee — Guy Degrenne

The Cassiopée collection by Guy Degrenne is a cutlery set in 18/0 stainless steel with mirror finish, positioned as the accessible entry-level range of the Guy Degrenne house. Clean lines, a polished finish and Guy Degrenne quality, all at a small price.

The Cassiopée specificity

• 18/0 stainless steel, 2 mm thick (2.5 mm for the complete set)

Choosing within the Cassiopée collection

Why is the Cassiopée collection popular?

Because it offers Guy Degrenne quality (clean finishing, balanced design) at an entry-level price. It is the ideal collection for a first cutlery set, a holiday-home service, or to equip a table without reaching for the high-end 18/10 3 mm ranges.

What is the difference between 18/0 and 18/10 stainless steel?

18/0 contains 18% chromium and 0% nickel - it is more magnetic and more affordable. 18/10 (10% nickel) offers more stable brilliance over time and better inertness. Cassiopée (18/0) is perfect for hassle-free everyday use; the 18/10 ranges (Mikado for example) target refined service and maximum durability.

Complete set or buy by lot?

The 24-piece set covers 6 complete covers (fork, knife, table spoon, teaspoon × 6). For a larger table or different services (8, 12 covers), build your service by sets of 6 and complete as needed.

Are Cassiopée cutlery dishwasher-safe?

Yes, 18/0 stainless steel tolerates the dishwasher. Drying immediately after the cycle limits limescale marks and preserves the mirror finish. Avoid prolonged contact with unrinsed salty foods (risk of pitting corrosion on 18/0 stainless steel).
