dinner set items name image
Les R
I've had the good fortune of eating at a lot of fine places in my life. The place settings that have impressed me the most are white, heavy duty, stoneware. The coffee cups are thick the plates are thick and they have always been larger than normal plates. I really don't know how to describe them other than I am sure most people have run across at some point in their life's. Does anyone understand what I'm talking about?
Answer
There are a number of companies that do, if you want to purchase restaurant style or types of heavy duty dishes, you can get them at all restaurant supply places, most sell retail and there cheaper n the long run than department store sets, they come packaged in boxes or sets of 8-12 pieces per item, like dinner plates, side plates, soup plates, soup bowls and so on, call a local operation and tell them your interested in opening a restaurant and want to check out there selection of dishes.

Proper way to display China in cabinet?
A K
I am getting married and have received my Great-Grandma's China. I also received a giant China cabinet to store it in. My question is with all three or four sizes of bowls and plates (to which I am not sure there proper names other than big, medium and small!) and teacups and saucers, how should I set it up. I have I groove in the back to stand up the big (dinner?) plates, but that is all!!! Please help, I have like 100 pieces (12 pieces of each) that I just cleaned all over my kitchen that I need to get put up!!!!

Think mountains, peaks in the middle working in a bell curve downward toward the sides. Optically, the fewer items you display, the less the china chest will look like the inside of another kitchen cupboard with dishes, bowls and serving ware piled up in storage. The plate rate in the back of each shelf usually accomodates platters or chargers that act as a backdrop to whatever is in front of them, usually crystal because you can see through it to the beauty of the platter behind. I generally don't use either the teacups or saucers on display in a china chest because there is just no decorative way to do it. Generally, those are just stacked and stored below behind solid cupboard doors. However, they do make rails that you can install inexpensively on the bottoms of shelves that hold them close together, neatly and in a compact manner. You can find them at Bed Bath & Beyond, Linen N things and even WalMart. Using the bowls in a decorative manner, you can take table linens, like napkins held in a napkin ring, and make almost a flower like arrangement putting the napkins (ring side down) in a stack of bowls for height. The napkin arrangement can also be done inside wine or drinking goblets for drama. The addition of fabric breaks up the sea of china and adds interest. I've even used little wicker baskets opened turned on their sides to store salad plates stacked sideways and then using the top of the wicker basket to give height to display something interesting like a gravy boat. The idea is to create little vignettes behind the glass doors that are creative and visually stimulating. The addition of texture and fabric used intermittently really packs some design punch.
