dinnerware sets to buy image

Edie

i am looking for a new dinnerware set that can be used both for formal and everyday wear. i prefer the teacup with saucer look and some color or pattern. i do not like all white. i would like the dinnerware to come in a 49 or 57 piece or more set. i really want serving dishes in the same pattern with it. the price has to be $200-$300 range. can you help?

Answer
Edie, We bought the Blue Willow dishes years ago just for that. Real pretty but allot has broke or chipped. Best one I have found, and I don't know even if they are made anymore, are dishes made by Coreile made by Corning in the U.S.A. There are many different patterns,looks like fine china but are virtually unbreakable. I wished we had bought those instead of the Blue WIllow .You should look into those before you buy any dinnerware.They might be a little expensive but I'm only guessing at that because they can't sell too many of those as they never break! Oh I'm back. I looked it up and they still make them. I spelled it wrong, it is corelle by corning. Not too expensive either. They have really cool patterns now too and glasses! I am amazed. What I have are at least forty years old so I haven't looked at new ones in forty years! Wow what a difference forty years make.lol!

I bought new dinnerware set by The Cellar its called olives, I have a tuscany style kitchen. I'm having a hard time what color to use. Can anyone give me any ideas?

Answer
Not sure of the colors of your kitchen... Aprile Cornell - Burgundy is a pretty pattern for 'tuscan' theme. The colors have reds and golds and some 'olive tones" in them.
