Art Deco Tantalus by Louis Prodhon
Located in New Orleans, LA
This French Art Deco coromandel and chrome-plated tantalus by Louis Prodhon allows one to enjoy the finest libations in style, even in the company of greedy hands. Crafted of luxurious coromandel and chrome, this marvelous case holds three square-cut glass Baccarat decanters.

To gain access to the liquor, simply insert the key and turn to unlock the handle and remove the decanter of your choice. Found in India, Sri Lanka and other parts of Southeast Asia, coromandel, or calamander wood, is one of the most distinctive timbers in the world.

Four Antique English Porcelain Shell Shaped Dishes Made circa 1810
Located in Katonah, NY
WHY WE LOVE IT: The founder of Bardith, Edith Wolf, always said, "Miles Mason never made a piece of porcelain that wasn't beautiful." This group of four shell-shaped dishes was made in the Regency period, circa 1810. Like many of Miles Mason's best designs, this pattern has flair. It is one of his finest patterns. The two pairs of dishes are fully painted with pink and orange flowers with green leaves. The unexpected combination of pink with orange highlighted with green makes this a gorgeous pattern. Placed in a cabinet or on a wall, these dishes will make an entire room come alive. Dimensions: 8.5" tall x 8" wide Condition: Excellent Price: $620 for the group For an image of a dish in this pattern, see R Haggar and E Adams: "Mason Porcelain and Ironstone 1796-1853, fig 85. For more information on a variety of Miles Mason's patterns, see "Miles Mason Porcelain a Guide to Patterns and Shapes" by D. S. Skinner and V. Young and the Stoke-on Trent City Museum. Background of Miles Mason In 1796 Miles Mason entered into a partnership with the experienced porcelain manufacturer Thomas Wolfe...

Antique and Vintage Serveware, Ceramics, Silver and Glass

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.
