The Vollrath Brocade 6-1/2" four-tine salad fork is the salad course piece in the Brocade pattern — four tines at standard salad fork length with mirror finish and the Brocade's elegant trim. Pairs with the 7-1/2" Brocade dinner fork in a complete Brocade place setting, with the 1" length differential providing clear course differentiation. Heavyweight 18% chrome stainless steel.
Sold by the dozen. Mirror finish consistent with the full Brocade flatware program.
The Brocade salad fork is the salad course and appetizer piece that completes the core fork set in a Brocade place setting — paired with the 7-1/2" Brocade dinner fork, the 6-1/2" salad fork creates the two-fork place setting arrangement standard for American formal dining, with the 1" length differential providing clear visual distinction between the two pieces.
In a formal Brocade place setting, both forks are placed to the left of the plate with the salad fork on the outside — the outer-first convention that cues guests to work from the outside in through the courses. The length difference at 1" makes this course navigation intuitive without requiring place card instruction, which is the goal of proper formal place setting design.
Four tines at 6-1/2" provides the salad fork with versatile capability across salad, appetizer, and dessert course applications. The same fork that handles a composed salad at the first course handles a dessert tart at the final course in many formal dining programs where a dessert fork isn't separately presented. The four-tine configuration handles this range of application gracefully.
The Brocade mirror finish and trim detailing on the salad fork maintain the pattern's visual character in the smaller salad fork format. The trim detailing is visible on both sides of the handle — when the fork is laid on the tablecloth between courses or rests on the plate, the decorative detailing is visible from multiple angles, maintaining the Brocade aesthetic throughout the dining experience.
18% chrome stainless steel. Sold by the dozen.
