The Natura Five-Piece Place Setting, Set of 4 arrives in a VIETRI gift box, which makes this the version to buy when the flatware is going to someone else. The Natura pattern takes its cue from a blade of grass, a single line traced down the center of each handle, and it comes from Bugatti in Lumezzane, a Lombardy workshop five brothers opened more than ninety years ago and still the source of every piece here. Each piece is 18/10 stainless steel, the alloy that gives flatware its heft and its resistance to rust and tarnish, which is why good flatware keeps its shine through years of daily meals. Twenty pieces set a table for four, and because it is all dishwasher safe, the set survives the kind of long Italian dinner it was designed for.
