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.

Shop a range of antique and vintage majolica on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 4, 2024One of the easiest ways to identify vintage majolica is to use the maker's marks. Look at the bottom and interior of your piece and then consult trusted online resources to determine if it was produced by a maker well-known for making majolica, such as Wedgwood, Minton or George Jones. Once you have identified the maker, research further to determine the approximate age of your piece. You can consider it vintage if it is 20 to 99 years old.

- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024To know if your majolica is real, examine the glaze carefully. Authentic majolica will usually be free of flaws, while reproductions may display runs and drips.

If you'd like a professional opinion, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a range of majolica pottery.

- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The difference between majolica and faience is largely a matter of geography and style. Both terms describe types of tin-glazed earthenware inspired by maiolica, ceramics made in Italy beginning in the 15th century. Majolica is the British take on maiolica. It emerged during the mid-19th century. Made by Minton and other companies, it is often playful and whimsical. Think of a sardine jar adorned with decorative sardines or a pie dish that resembles a real pie. Faience is the French version of maiolica. Artisans began producing it in the 16th century in the city of Rouen. However, it became especially popular during the late 19th century. Unlike the creative designs common among majolica pottery, faience tends to be more formal and draws inspiration from Persian, Japanese and Chinese ceramics. Explore a collection of majolica and faience pottery on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024The difference between a dining set and a dinette set is size. A dinette set usually consists of a small dining table plus two to four chairs. On the other hand, dining sets usually have larger tables with six or eight chairs. With some brands, dinette sets are more casual than dining sets. However, other brands offer both casual and formal dinettes and dining sets. Explore a diverse assortment of dining room furniture on 1stDibs.
- What is a wedding set?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021A wedding set is a set of three rings, namely an engagement ring and a pair of matching wedding bands for the betrothed. In some cases, the groom's ring is excluded and it’s called a bridal set. Shop a collection of vintage and modern wedding ring sets from some of the world’s top jewelers on 1stDibs.
- What is a dinette set?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021A dinette set is a smaller dining table with matching seating for a smaller space or smaller kitchen. They are less formal than dining table sets. They are usually used in kitchens as eat-in tables. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique and vintage dinette sets.
