Finding the Right Dining-entertaining for You
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?
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. From ceramic pottery to glass vases, set your table with serving pieces that add even more personality, color and texture to your dining experience.
Invite serveware from around the world to join your table settings. 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. Celebrate the English ritual of afternoon tea with a Japanese tea set and an antique Victorian kettle. 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.
Add 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. 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. The latter is ideal for statement pieces — your tall mid-century modern ceramic vase is a guaranteed conversation starter. And while your earthenware or stoneware is maybe better suited to everyday lunches as opposed to the fine bone china you’ve reserved for a holiday meal, handcrafted studio pottery coffee mugs can still be a rich expression of your personal style.
“My motto is ‘Have fun with it,’” says author and celebrated hostess Stephanie Booth Shafran. “It’s yin and yang, high and low, Crate Barrel with Christofle silver. I like to mix it up — sometimes in the dining room, sometimes on the kitchen banquette, sometimes in the loggia. It transports your guests and makes them feel more comfortable and relaxed.”
Introduce elegance at supper with silver, such as a platter from celebrated Massachusetts silversmith manufacturer Reed and Barton or a regal copper-finish flatware set designed by International Silver Company, another New England company that was incorporated in Meriden, Connecticut, in 1898. By then, Meriden had already earned the nickname “Silver City” for its position as a major hub of silver manufacturing.
At the bar, try a vintage wine cooler to keep bottles cool before serving or an Art Deco decanter and whiskey set for after-dinner drinks — there are many possibilities and no wrong answers for tableware, barware and serveware. Explore an expansive collection of antique and vintage glass, ceramics, silver and serveware today on 1stDibs.
Questions About Decanter And Glasses
- Are glass decanters valuable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023Whether glass decanters are valuable depends on the piece. The maker, age, rarity and condition of a decanter will influence its value, and whether or not collectors desire pieces like it will also have an effect on how much a given glass decanter will be worth. A certified appraiser can evaluate a particular decanter and provide an estimate of its value. On 1stDibs, find a range of glass decanters.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To clean a cut-glass decanter, fill your sink with warm water and mild dish soap. Place the decanter in the sink and wipe it with a soft cloth. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and dry with a soft towel. On 1stDibs, shop a range of antique and vintage decanters.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The purpose of decanting depends on the liquid involved. People decant wine to aerate it and enhance its flavor. You may also need to decant wine to filter out sediment or pieces of cork. Normally, decanting spirits is simply for storage purposes. Find a collection of antique and vintage decanters on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Decanters are vessels that are typically used to hold and serve alcoholic beverages. They may also be used for storing beverages for a short period of time. Some people believe that serving from a decanter is better than serving from a bottle because it releases the aroma. On 1stDibs, find vintage and contemporary decanters from top sellers around the world.
- What is a decanter made out of?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A decanter is usually made out of one of two materials: glass or crystal. However, artisans may also produce them out of other materials, such as marble, ceramic, porcelain or terracotta. You can find a collection of decanters on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No, decanters and carafes are not the same although they can both hold wine and spirits. A carafe is typically used for serving, while decanters have a lid and are suitable for both storing and serving. Shop a variety of decanters and carafes on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021The purpose of a decanter is to allow the wine to breathe. A decanter is a vessel that holds wine poured from the bottle. Letting wine breathe allows the wine's flavors the shine.
- What are square decanters for?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Square decanters are used for holding liquids, usually spirits. They include a stopper that creates an airtight seal to preserve the freshness of whatever you pour into it. On 1stDibs, shop a large collection of decanters from some of the world’s top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022For wine, a decanter does three main things: Transferring wine from a bottle to a decanter aerates it to enhance its flavor and bouquet. In addition, decanters allow wine to be easily poured into glasses and can serve as storage containers. On 1stDibs, shop a wide variety of decanters.
- What is a Tantalus Decanter?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021A Tantalus Decanter is a wooden container with a lock and key for glass decanters. The basic framework of the piece, first patented in 1881 by George Betjemann, permits two, three, and sometimes four decanters to be secured within it, visible yet inaccessible when locked. The decanters cannot be unstopped or removed once they have been fastened within the tantalus. Find a range of antique tantalus decanters on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Many types of liquor can go in a decanter, including bourbon, brandy, cognac, gin, rum, scotch, tequila, vodka and whiskey. Decanters are also suitable for wine storage. Generally, glass decanters with thicker walls work best for chilled liquids like white wine and vodka. Find a selection of decanters on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023To clean a crystal decanter, soak in warm water and dish soap and then wipe with a soft cloth or a sponge with a handle. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth. If stains linger, mix equal parts warm water and white vinegar and fill the decanter with it. Let it sit for an hour or two and then rinse thoroughly. Find a range of crystal decanters on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021A ship’s decanter is a container that was traditionally used to carry liquor on board a sailing ship. A ship’s decanter may now be found in homes and restaurants as an alternative to wine bottles or carafes. Cognac, whisky, brandy and other spirits can be served in a ship’s decanter. On 1stDibs, choose from an assortment of styles, material and more with respect to the ship’s decanter you’re looking for.
- Do old decanters contain lead?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023Yes, old decanters may contain lead if they are crystal. Until the passage of regulations in the 1960s, many manufacturers used crystal that was 32 percent lead or more. As a result, decanters made from the crystal are generally not safe to use to store spirits. On 1stDibs, find a collection of decanters.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Provided that the seal is airtight, you can typically keep liquor in a crystal decanter for as long as you can store the spirit in an already opened bottle. Vodka, brandy and other liquors may remain fresh for a few years. A decanter will usually preserve wine for a few days. Shop a range of crystal decanters on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Depression glass refers to any glass made during the period 1929-1939, and the Federal Glass Company was one of the most prolific makers of glass in America during that period. You can identify Federal Glassware by looking for the distinct shield with capital “F” stamped logo somewhere on the piece. Shop vintage Federal Glass on 1stDibs from some of the world’s top sellers.
- Is Tiffany glass real glass?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024Yes, Tiffany glass is real glass. Louis Comfort Tiffany and his workshop, Tiffany Studios, produced many types of decorative glassware, such as opalescent glass, Favrile glass, streamer glass, fracture glass and ripple glass. While the colors, patterns, thicknesses and other characteristics of these materials vary, they are all forms of glass. Find a diverse assortment of antique Tiffany lamps on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No, cordial glasses are not the same as shot glasses. Typically, cordial glasses feature stems, while shot glasses do not. Normally, people use cordial glasses for serving liqueurs and dessert wines. Shot glasses are generally meant for hard spirits. Shop a range of antique and vintage glasses on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The difference between depression glass and carnival glass is color. Inspired by Tiffany stained glass, carnival glass usually shows off a variety of vibrant iridescent colors, while depression glass tends to feature only one color. Find a large selection of antique and vintage glassware on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021The difference between glass and crystal wine glasses is their composition. Mineral deposits like lead, magnesium or zinc strengthen crystal glass, rendering it thin but durable. On 1stDibs, you can find a variety of wine glasses and other glassware from different periods.
