DINNERWARE

Dine in Style With Stunning Dinnerware

The key to any beautiful place setting is choosing quality dinnerware from the start, and Williams Sonoma offers an exceptional selection. Stylish design details, top-quality materials and thoughtful details make these dinnerware sets ones that will be at the heart of meals with friends and family for a long time to come.

Choosing Your Dinnerware Sets

With so many different options when it comes to dinnerware sets, choosing your favourites really comes down to taking a close look at all the various design details, including:

• Style: As you begin to browse all the different dinnerware options available, consider the overall design style of your bedroom and look for dinnerware that's reflective of the look you're trying to achieve in the space. Choose something with all-season appeal for a neutral sophistication or opt for something that's a little bolder or seasonal in design to make your dining table a festive experience.
• Items: When a couple of dinnerware sets catch your eye, it's time to look at precisely what items are included in the dinnerware set. Dinner plates, salad plates, mugs and bowls are all typical pieces in a dinnerware set, but there are variations on that combination. Not only do you have to look at what items are included, but also how many place settings are included in each set. Many of these dinnerware sets are part of greater collections that would include serving pieces and other items you can add to your new dinnerware sets to complete the look.
• Material: Before you make a final selection, take a moment to look at the materials used to craft the dinnerware. This is also when you'll look at the care instructions, especially if a dishwasher-safe design is essential to you.
• Quantity: Consider how many people you serve around your dinner table and make sure your set features enough place setting to accommodate that number of people. If not, you may need to purchase two or three dinnerware sets to surround your table with style.

The dinnerware collections you've selected are just one way to enhance the look of your formal or informal dining table. Turn to Williams Sonoma for everything else you need to tie the whole look together. Stock up on cutlery, glassware sets, table linens, place mats, chargers, candlesticks and all the other small decor pieces that make a big impact on your dinner table.
