The latter is ideal for statement pieces - your tall mid-century modern ceramic vase is a guaranteed conversation starter.

Although porcelain and ceramic are both made in a kiln, porcelain is made with more refined clay and is more durable than ceramic because it is denser. No matter how big or small your dining area is, there is room for the stories of many cultures and varied histories, and there are plenty of ways to add pizzazz to your meals.Īdd different textures and colors to your table with dinner plates and pitchers of ceramic and silver or a porcelain lidded tureen, a serving dish with side handles that is often used for soups. Celebrate the English ritual of afternoon tea with a Japanese tea set and an antique Victorian kettle. For special occasions, dress up your plates with a striking Imari charger from 19th-century Japan or incorporate Richard Ginori’s Italian porcelain plates into your dining experience. Invite serveware from around the world to join your table settings.

From ceramic pottery to glass vases, set your table with serving pieces that add even more personality, color and texture to your dining experience.

Just like the people who sit around your table, your serveware has its own stories and will help you create new memories with your friends and loved ones. Your dining room table is a place where stories are shared and personalities shine - why not treat yourself and your guests to the finest antique and vintage glass, silver, ceramics and serveware for your meals?
