Co. and Archibald Knox are consistently popular.

Finding the Right Serveware, Ceramics, Silver And Glass 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.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 12, 2024The difference between silver and pewter is a matter of metal type. Silver is a naturally occurring element, but most silver goods are an alloy of pure silver and a base metal. On the other hand, pewter is an alloy made of antimony, copper, bismuth and occasionally pure silver. Silver tends to have a shinier appearance, while pewter will appear duller.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Pewter plates and dishware date back to ancient times, and were used by Egyptians and later the Romans. It was used all the way up to the 18th and 19th centuries, when new techniques for pottery and glass-making were discovered, making pewter less popular. Shop a collection of pewter from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022Arthur Court creates products by hand out of aluminum, not pewter. Some pieces may resemble pewter due to changes in the finish that occurred over time. Occasionally, the company used additional materials like Lucite in their designs. Shop a collection of Arthur Court decorative objects and serveware on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Before ceramics were common for household goods, pewter was the material of choice for tankards. The earliest pewter tankards date back to the mid-17th century. Pewter was a practical choice, especially for pubs, because it was durable and inexpensive. It was also very easy to care for, in fact, dented mugs can even be reshaped. It should be noted that older pewter was made using lead, which is poisonous, but today’s pewter is lead-free. Shop a collection of tankards from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023No, you can't store lemonade in a pewter pitcher.

Generally, you should never serve or store beverages in any vessel that's not marked as food-grade. Shop a collection of pitchers 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.
