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.

Questions About Hotel Silver Platter
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Silver platters are solid silver or silver-plated. In order to qualify as pure silver, an object must be made from at least 92.5% pure silver. For example, most sterling silver is around 7.5% copper, which helps strengthen the piece and give it longevity. Shop a collection of antique and modern silver platters from some of the worlds top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024
    Yes, a silver platter may be worth something. Solid silver pieces likely have value simply due to the going market rate for silver precious metals. In addition, both solid silver and silver-plated platters may be sought by collectors based on their age, style and other factors. Some collectors look for platters made by specific manufacturers, such as Tiffany & Co., Gorham and Christofle. If you'd like to receive a professional valuation for your piece, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer. Shop a variety of silver platters on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024
    To tell if a platter is real silver, search the piece for purity hallmarks. Marking systems vary by country, so research the ones on your piece using trusted online resources to determine the metal. If you can't find any markings, try holding a magnet near your platter. Solid silver isn't magnetic. As a result, you can conclude that your piece is silver-plated or crafted out of an entirely different metal if a magnet sticks to its surface. If you need help identifying your platter's material, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can be of service. Find a selection of silver platters on 1stDibs.
