Kings Parish cutlery in polished stainless steel for formal dining and tea service. Live stock and online booking.
Kings Parish is the most formal cutlery pattern in the Expo Hire range. The fiddle-thread-and-shell design — a raised shell motif at the handle tip, thread border along the edge, and hourglass waist — is the pattern most associated with formal English banqueting, silver service, and state dining. If the event brief includes a top table, silver service, or a traditional hotel ballroom setting, Kings Parish is the right choice.

Kings Parish has the most complete service range of the four patterns — including fish cutlery and serving pieces for silver service setups.
It is the most widely recognised English silverware pattern: a shell at the top of the handle, a thread (raised line) running along the edge, and a narrowed waist giving the fiddle shape. Kings Parish reproduces this in stainless steel — it is the traditional hotel and livery company banqueting standard.
Yes. Serving spoons and sauce ladles are part of the Kings Parish range for silver service setups. Add to the basket alongside the place setting pieces.

Cleaning cutlery after a big function is not only a boring job but is also the time when cutlery is most likely to get lost while on hire.
It’s the main reason why we have made it compulsory for all cutlery items to have the send it back dirty option added at checkout. All a customer needs to do is to ensure that all food debris is scraped off cutlery before it’s repacked ready for collection.
Expo Hire does not charge a security deposit. A free minor damage waiver covers minor damage and loss. Excessive or negligent damage is charged at 10 times the hire price. Full details in our terms and conditions.
