Pro Tip & Perpétue Spoon Maintenance: The Perpétue Dessert Spoon is masterfully engineered from premium, solid stainless steel to fully withstand automatic dishwashers with absolute ease. To keep your spoon looking brand new and completely free from superficial water marks, load it into your dishwasher's cutlery basket with the handle pointing downward for optimum water drainage and thorough cleaning. Avoid using overly abrasive citrus-based cleaning gels, as these can dull the brilliant factory polish over time. For a flawless, mirror-like gleam when setting a formal table for guests, simply pull the spoon out immediately after the dishwasher drying cycle finishes and give it a quick buff with a dry microfibre towel before placement!

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.
